When the warehouse closed in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $650 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $470
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $115
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Clement?
Thank you. If you're in Accra I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
stay strong. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
how is Clement doing now?
You're not alone, Clement. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. God bless.
hope things get better soon, Clement. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Badagry
Take care, Clement. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
