Following a long illness in the family, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,200. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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 weekend shifts, 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 $3,200 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $1,050 • Rent arrears (2 months): $1,900 • Late fees and court costs: $250 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Sigrid

    Praying for you, Sigrid. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.

        so sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Toronto.
