When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,000.
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.
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 $4,000 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,900
• Late fees and court costs: $220
• First month of rent as a buffer: $880
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there, Dennis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
hope it all works out, Dennis. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My husband and I read this together. All the best
Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Laval
