Keep a roof over Faith's head in Mbale
A long illness left Faith short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇺🇬 Mbale, Eastern Region, Uganda990 views
When the hotel closed in December, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, 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 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 $500 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $310
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $50
• First month of rent as a buffer: $95
Thank you for reading my story.

Stay strong, Faith. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in San Jose but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Mbale.
