Keep a roof over Mathieu's head in Boulogne-Billancourt
The closure of the factory left Mathieu 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 Saturday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,950.
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 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $2,950 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,950
• Late fees and court costs: $220
• Utilities in arrears: $130
• First month of rent as a buffer: $650
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Best of luck. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Tokyo but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Mathieu. This could happen to any of us.
wishing you peace, Mathieu. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless
