Keep a roof over Letícia's head in Niterói
A divorce left Letícia short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I have two young 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 weekend shifts, 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 $700 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $200
• Rent arrears (3 months): $490
• Utilities in arrears: $10
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
