Keep a roof over Tiffany's head in Orlando

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050.
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 a teenager still in school 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $1,050 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $230
• First month of rent as a buffer: $630
• Late fees and court costs: $190
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tiffany!
It's all in the list in the story. utilities in arrears is the big one at $230, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. It helps to be asked.
Sending love, Tiffany. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 20 people at work. God bless.
Hope things get better soon, Tiffany. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thinking of you, Tiffany. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together.
hope you get there. We're a small family in Seoul but we're thinking of you. Love from Seoul.
