Keep a roof over Minh's head in Thủ Đức

After a sudden layoff, Minh is 5 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, Minh fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $650. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, 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. Minh has started working weekend shifts, and is 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 $650 goes: • Rent arrears (5 months): $410 • Late fees and court costs: $45 • Utilities in arrears: $55 • First month of rent as a buffer: $140 With deep gratitude, Thảo
