Oisin received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A notice to vacate arrived last week. Oisin needs $3,700 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Dublin.

When my hours were cut in half in September, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,700. 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 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 $3,700 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $250 • First month of rent as a buffer: $920 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,530 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Oisin

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($713 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,410 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
