Keep a roof over Ganesh's head in Thane
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Ganesh needs $700 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Thane.

After a sudden layoff at the bakery, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700.
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 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 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $700 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $510
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $115
I hope life is good to you.

A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Houston so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Dayton
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Dasmariñas.
