Keep a roof over Shoaib's head in Gujranwala

A final eviction notice arrived last week. Shoaib needs $450 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Gujranwala.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 3 weeks, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave. I have a teenager still in school 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 night deliveries, 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 $450 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $115 • Utilities in arrears: $40 • Rent arrears (2 months): $295 I hope life is good to you. - Shoaib
