A termination letter arrived last week. Michelle needs $1,100 to clear the arrears and stay housed in London.

When the packaging plant closed in October, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,100. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, 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 night deliveries, 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 $1,100 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $155 • Utilities in arrears: $170 • First month of rent as a buffer: $775 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      Thinking of you, Michelle. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Istanbul.

        I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Rio de Janeiro this morning. All the best

        • This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from San Francisco.
