After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,950.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, we must leave.
I've 4 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 night deliveries, 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 $1,950 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $75
• First month of rent as a buffer: $520
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,355
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 23 years in social work I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Love from Envigado.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Hyun-jun?
Thank you. If you're in Busan I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
You're not alone, Hyun-jun. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Los Angeles.
any update on how things are going in Busan?
So sorry you're going through this, Hyun-jun. Shared this with my family. All the best.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Hyun-jun
Wishing you the best, Hyun-jun. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Port Harcourt donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Busan.
wishing you the best. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Melbourne
Sending strength, Hyun-jun. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings.
