Keep a roof over Larysa's head in Kazan

After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, Larysa fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $400. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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. Larysa has started working extra hours at a market stall, and is 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 $400 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $60 • Utilities in arrears: $65 • First month of rent as a buffer: $275 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
