Keep a roof over Rosa's head in Irapuato

When the packaging plant closed in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,150.
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 two young 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 $1,150 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $750
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Utilities in arrears: $35
• First month of rent as a buffer: $325
Every share and every dollar helps.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rosa.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. rent arrears (2 months) comes first ($750) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
You're not alone, Rosa. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
so sorry you're going through this, Rosa. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. All the best.
Any update on how things are going in Irapuato?
best of luck. Hope you get there. Love from Bogor.
Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
