Keep a roof over Yuki's head in Shinjuku
A long illness left Yuki short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, Yuki fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,050.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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.
Yuki 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $3,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,900
• Late fees and court costs: $220
• Utilities in arrears: $220
• First month of rent as a buffer: $710
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck, Haruto. Shared this with my family. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Shinjuku.
Sending love. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Palermo donated after I showed her your page. God bless

Thanks for sharing this, Haruto. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Newcastle.
sending love, Haruto. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 15 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending love, Haruto. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
