Following a long illness in the family, Roman fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,950. 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 a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Roman has started working two part-time jobs, 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 $2,950 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $1,600 • First month of rent as a buffer: $1,050 • Late fees and court costs: $300 Every share and every dollar helps.
