Keep a roof over Daniel's head in Bristol
A sudden layoff left Daniel short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in February, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,250.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, 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.
Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent.
Where the $3,250 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $100
• Rent arrears (2 months): $2,900
• Late fees and court costs: $250
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

thinking of you, Daniel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Jacksonville
Hang in there, Daniel. Your post was clear and honest. Take care
praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Palmira donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
stay strong, Daniel. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Take care.
