Keep a roof over Kerem's head in Bursa
After a divorce, Kerem is 3 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.
🇹🇷 Bursa, Türkiye2,235 views
When my hours were cut in half in June, Kerem fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $950.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Kerem has started working night deliveries, and is 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 $950 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $60
• Utilities in arrears: $45
• Rent arrears (3 months): $845
Thank you for reading my story.

good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care!
rooting for you, Cem. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Lapu-Lapu so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Best of luck. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Dar es Salaam.
Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours!
hang in there, Cem. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
keep going, Cem. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Sending strength. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Jakarta Barat
Good luck, Cem. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Greetings from A Coruña.
