Prasad received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A notice to vacate arrived last week. Prasad needs $600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Mumbai.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India948 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $380
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $140
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Mumbai.
sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Mumbai.
Keep going. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Athens donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 6 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
