Keep a roof over Fatima's head in Seville
A delayed insurance payout left Fatima short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.
🇪🇸 Andalusia, Spain1,280 views
When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,000.
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 three school-aged 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $2,000 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $1,350
• Late fees and court costs: $210
• Utilities in arrears: $60
• First month of rent as a buffer: $380
With deep gratitude,
Fatima

how is Fatima doing now?
Wishing you peace, Fatima. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Good luck, Fatima. Shared this with my family.
So sorry you're going through this, Fatima. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Seville.
Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Fort Worth.
thinking of you and your family, Fatima. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
