Keep a roof over Suresh's head in Ludhiana
A car accident left Suresh short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.

After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500.
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 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 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 $500 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $280
• Late fees and court costs: $25
• Utilities in arrears: $45
• First month of rent as a buffer: $150
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you, Suresh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Dallas!
