Keep a roof over Sérgio's head in Curitiba
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Sérgio needs $1,050 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Curitiba.

When the construction firm closed in June, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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 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 $1,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $700
• Late fees and court costs: $90
• First month of rent as a buffer: $260
Thank you so much.

Hang in there, Sérgio. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Curitiba.
