After a sudden layoff at the textile factory, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $900.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by March, we must leave.
I've 1 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 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 $900 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $590
• Late fees and court costs: $75
• Utilities in arrears: $35
• First month of rent as a buffer: $200
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
