Keep a roof over Vanessa's head in Mandaue
After a car accident, Vanessa is 4 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.
🇵🇭 Mandaue, Cebu, Philippines527 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday 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 September, 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:
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• Rent arrears (4 months): $240
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out, Vanessa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Mandaue.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
