Keep a roof over Victoria's head in Toronto

A car accident left Victoria short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

When the bakery closed in May, Victoria fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a notice to vacate was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,550. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, the family must leave. There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Victoria has started working night deliveries, 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 $3,550 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $2,400 • Late fees and court costs: $360 • Utilities in arrears: $180 • First month of rent as a buffer: $610 With deep gratitude, Jameson

              A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
