Rose received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A cut in working hours left Rose short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $450 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $290
• Late fees and court costs: $30
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• First month of rent as a buffer: $105
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck, Rose. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to New Orleans so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rose
hang in there, Rose. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Sending good thoughts. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Konya donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
hope things get better soon, Rose. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Rose. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Dar es Salaam
You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Keep going, Rose. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Setagaya so I could bring a meal.
Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Dar es Salaam.
Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Mumbai.
