Rick received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A car accident left Rick short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in August, Rick fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,600.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Rick has started working two part-time jobs, and is 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 $2,600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,500
• Late fees and court costs: $270
• Utilities in arrears: $120
• First month of rent as a buffer: $710
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

How is Rick doing now?
Best of luck, Roos. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Sending love, Roos. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. It's not much but it's yours.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
Hang in there, Roos. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Bilbao.
