Narayanganj
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $550. 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 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $550 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $15 • Rent arrears (3 months): $430 • First month of rent as a buffer: $105 With deep gratitude, Joya

Updates from Joya

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($192 in total) the plan for rent arrears is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 23% funded and we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. - Joya
