Keep a roof over Mousumi's head in Comilla
After a cut in working hours, Mousumi is 3 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

When the bakery closed in February, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, we must leave.
I've 3 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.
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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $450
• Late fees and court costs: $25
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $95
Thank you so much.

71% there. the first invoice got paid this week. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($344 in total) I made the first payment toward rent arrears. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
