Keep a roof over Corazon's head in Caloocan
After a long illness, Corazon is 4 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.
🇵🇭 Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines2,121 views
When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 weekend shifts, 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 $700 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $520
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $125
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Love from Austin
Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Oakland donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
Take care, Corazon. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Soweto but we're thinking of you
hope things get better soon. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Caloocan.
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Gdańsk.
So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 27 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Quezon City!
Hope things get better soon. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 40 people at work. Greetings from Nnewi
Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Caloocan
