Keep a roof over Sri's head in Jakarta
A sudden layoff left Sri short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in January, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
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 a toddler and a baby 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 $600 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $60
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• Rent arrears (3 months): $515
Glad we found this place.

good luck, Sri. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Greetings from Piraeus.
Wishing you the best, Sri. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Jakarta
Hang in there, Sri. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted
