After a long illness, Luís is 4 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.

When my hours were cut in half in June, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,250.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have a toddler and a baby 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 $1,250 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $930
• Late fees and court costs: $65
• Utilities in arrears: $60
• First month of rent as a buffer: $195
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in La Plata this morning.
Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 11 people at work. Take care
Keep going, Luís. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Nuremberg.
