Keep a roof over Jun's head in Philadelphia
After a divorce, Jun is 5 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.

When the construction firm closed in August, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,200.
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 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 $3,200 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $2,300
• Utilities in arrears: $175
• First month of rent as a buffer: $725
With deep gratitude,
Jun
