After a divorce, Mwanaisha is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.

When the construction firm closed in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I've 4 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $700 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $480
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Gazipur
Good luck, Mwanaisha. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless!
