After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,350. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby 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 $1,350 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $880 • Late fees and court costs: $115 • Utilities in arrears: $45 • First month of rent as a buffer: $310 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    • Sending love, Fabiana. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Best of luck, Fabiana. Hope you get there.

        • Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless

            Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

            • Sending love, Fabiana. Hope this works out for you. All the best
