Keep a roof over Théo's head in Grenoble
After a long illness, Théo is 4 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.

When the bakery closed in August, Théo fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,100.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Théo has started working evenings as a cleaner, and is 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 $3,100 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,900
• Late fees and court costs: $160
• Utilities in arrears: $250
• First month of rent as a buffer: $790
