Keep a roof over Parvathi's head in Aurangabad
A termination letter arrived last week. Parvathi needs $600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Aurangabad.

When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter 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 September, we must leave.
I've 2 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $600 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $60
• Rent arrears (5 months): $495
With deep gratitude,
Parvathi

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Parvathi.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. late fees and court costs is the biggest at $45. Thanks for looking so closely.

Stay strong, Parvathi. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
