Olga received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Olga needs $800 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Kyiv.

When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $800.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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 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 $800 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $620
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• First month of rent as a buffer: $110
Thanks for being kind about this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Olga.
It's all in the list in the story. rent arrears (5 months) is the big one at $620, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.
Hope it all works out, Olga. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Kyiv.
thinking of you, Olga. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
Praying for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours
