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

When the textile factory closed in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,350.
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've 1 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $1,350 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $880
• Utilities in arrears: $160
• Late fees and court costs: $310
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
