Keep a roof over Ebru's head in Dresden
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Ebru needs $2,750 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Dresden.

Following a long illness in the family, 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 $2,750.
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've 3 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $2,750 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $290
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,200
• Late fees and court costs: $260
I hope life is good to you.
