Keep a roof over Sajib's head in Dhaka

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $150.
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 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $150 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $95
• Late fees and court costs: $20
• Utilities in arrears: $35
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

sending love, Sajib. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
praying for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Campinas.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Cardiff so I could bring a meal.
