Keep a roof over Hua's head in Sherbrooke

A sudden layoff left Hua short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 weeks, Hua fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,750. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave. There are 1 children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Hua has started working night deliveries, 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 $3,750 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $2,850 • Late fees and court costs: $120 • Utilities in arrears: $270 • First month of rent as a buffer: $510 Thanks for being kind about this. - Dong
