Keep a roof over Eva's head in Eindhoven
The closure of the factory left Eva short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇳🇱 North Brabant, Netherlands1,061 views
When the construction firm closed in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400.
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 a teenager still in school 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $3,400 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,050
• Late fees and court costs: $250
• Utilities in arrears: $280
• First month of rent as a buffer: $820
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Updates from Eva
Small update. $368 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($223 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Praying for you, Eva. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
wishing you peace, Eva. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Hope things get better soon, Eva. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Pattaya!
you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Angeles donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Eva. Looking forward to the next update.
