Campinas
After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,500. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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 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. 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 $1,500 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $100 • Rent arrears (4 months): $1,050 • First month of rent as a buffer: $350 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Isabela

  1. Quick update: $486 raised so far (32%). I made the first payment toward first month of rent as a buffer. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($515 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Sending love, Isabela. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Campinas.

    • Hadi Ghassan Darwish

      Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care

      • Joseph B. Carter

        Thanks for sharing this, Isabela. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Isabela

          • Isabela NunesOwnerAnswerID verifiedPhoto verified

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. late fees and court costs comes first ($100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.
