Keep a roof over Lincoln's head in Fort Worth
A divorce left Lincoln short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.
🇺🇸 United States1,497 views
When the hotel closed in June, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,050.
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 teenager still in school 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $3,050 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $810
• Late fees and court costs: $185
• Rent arrears (5 months): $2,055
Thank you so much.

thinking of you and your family, Lincoln. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Allentown
Best of luck, Lincoln. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
sending love. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Sending love, Lincoln. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Nuremberg this morning.
Good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Pretoria.
