Keep a roof over Shahid's head in Lahore
After a long illness, Shahid is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.
🇵🇰 Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan2,156 views
When the restaurant closed in January, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $400.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by April, 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 $400 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $230
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $110
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Houston.
Best of luck, Shahid. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
keep going. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Ogbomosho
