Keep a roof over Jyoti's head in Nagpur
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Jyoti needs $600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Nagpur.

When the warehouse closed in June, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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.
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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $380
• Late fees and court costs: $60
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending good thoughts, Jyoti. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 22 people at work. All the best!
Thinking of you, Jyoti. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Hope things get better soon, Jyoti. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Cairo but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Nagpur.
Wishing you peace, Jyoti. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in London donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from London
