Keep a roof over Fernanda's head in Pittsburgh

A long illness left Fernanda short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When the warehouse closed in August, Fernanda fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,750. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave. There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Fernanda has started working weekend shifts, and is 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 $1,750 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $340 • Utilities in arrears: $390 • First month of rent as a buffer: $1,020 I hope life is good to you. - Bruno

      Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. After 14 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
