Keep a roof over Ganga's head in Dharan

A notice to vacate arrived last week. Ganga needs $400 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Dharan.

Dharan
After a sudden layoff at the packaging plant, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $400. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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 $400 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $15 • Rent arrears (3 months): $290 • First month of rent as a buffer: $95 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Ganga

            is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ganga

              It's all in the list in the story. utilities in arrears is the big one at $15, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.
