After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,300. 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 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 weekend shifts, 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 $2,300 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $1,600 • Late fees and court costs: $180 • Utilities in arrears: $100 • First month of rent as a buffer: $420 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      Hope it all works out, Hala. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours.

        Good luck. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Manchester.

        • Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Oakland.
