Keep a roof over Simone's head in Reims
After a divorce, Simone is 3 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,250.
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 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 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 $3,250 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,800
• Utilities in arrears: $230
• Late fees and court costs: $220
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Laredo
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Reims.
Thank you. If you're in Reims I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Sending good thoughts, Simone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Caxias do Sul.
wishing you the best, Simone. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Nakhon Ratchasima but we're thinking of you.
Hope things get better soon, Simone. I hope things turn around soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Reims.
Good luck. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Reims.
