Keep a roof over Luiz's head in Santarém
The loss of a second income left Luiz short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.

When the bakery closed in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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 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 $1,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $570
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $100
• First month of rent as a buffer: $330
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Best of luck, Luiz. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Dwarka donated after I showed her your page.
Sending strength, Luiz. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Luiz. This could happen to any of us. Love from Feira de Santana
Hang in there, Luiz. Your post was clear and honest.
