After a sudden layoff at the warehouse, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350.
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've 4 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $350 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $80
• Rent arrears (5 months): $230
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 40 people at work. Greetings from Gangnam.
Sending strength, Moin. I hope things turn around soon. Take care.
Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Peshawar
Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Mumbai but we're thinking of you. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Moin. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together
