Keep a roof over Thanh's head in Cần Thơ
A car accident left Thanh short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇻🇳 Cần Thơ, Vietnam288 views
When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $300.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 $300 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Rent arrears (4 months): $235
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
