When my hours were cut in half in February, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $800.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 $800 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $45
• Rent arrears (3 months): $450
• First month of rent as a buffer: $305
Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Inés
Thank you all. We're at 28% now ($223). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward rent arrears.

Wishing you peace. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
take care. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
