Keep a roof over Pooja's head in Aurangabad

Following a long illness in the family, Pooja fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice 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 July, the family must leave. There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Pooja has started working night deliveries, 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 (4 months): $430 • Late fees and court costs: $45 • Utilities in arrears: $45 • First month of rent as a buffer: $130 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Purvi
