Keep a roof over Kiran's head in Rawalpindi
The loss of a second income left Kiran short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇵🇰 Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan275 views
When the hotel closed in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $250.
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 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 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 $250 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $15
• Rent arrears (4 months): $180
• Utilities in arrears: $55

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Mumbai.
Wishing you peace, Kiran. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
wishing you the best, Kiran. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Take care!
