Keep a roof over Felipe's head in Guarulhos

After a long illness, Felipe is 4 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

Guarulhos
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $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 have two young 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 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 $750 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $50 • Rent arrears (4 months): $600 • Late fees and court costs: $100 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    hang in there, Felipe. This could happen to any of us. After 11 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Guarulhos.

    • Ezra A. FreemanID verified

      Thinking of you and your family, Felipe. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Guarulhos.

      • Anastasia Bogdana Stepanov

        Praying for you, Felipe. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Incheon.

        • Itzel K. Galindo

          sending strength. Looking forward to the next update!

          • Jacques Antoine Pierre

            Keep going, Felipe. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
