Keep a roof over Remedios's head in Taguig

A car accident left Remedios short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby 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 $650 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $175 • Utilities in arrears: $60 • Rent arrears (4 months): $415 Thanks for being kind about this. - Remedios

Updates from Remedios

  1. Small update. $189 so far, the first invoice got paid this week.

  2. Update from Taguig: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 13% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 5% funded and the plan for first month of rent as a buffer is now scheduled.

    Praying for you, Remedios. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Taguig.
