Keep a roof over Konstantin's head in Zaporizhzhia
After a cut in working hours, Konstantin is 2 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.
🇺🇦 Zaporizhzhia, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Ukraine1,885 views
Following a long illness in the family, Konstantin fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $800.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, the family must leave.
There are 2 children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Konstantin has started working weekend shifts, 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 $800 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $590
• Late fees and court costs: $55
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $135
Thank you so much.

Updates from Ivan
Good news. Because of your gifts ($432 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Zaporizhzhia: we've started the first stage. We're at 35% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Konstantin?
Thank you. If you're in Zaporizhzhia I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Oakland.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Konstantin.
Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (2 months), $590. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
good luck. Hope you get there. Blessings.
Keep going. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon!
