Sanne received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A divorce left Sanne short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇳🇱 North Brabant, Netherlands3,999 views
When the textile factory closed in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, 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 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 $3,400 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,300
• Late fees and court costs: $330
• Utilities in arrears: $220
• First month of rent as a buffer: $550
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Multan this morning.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Breda.
Thank you. If you're in Breda I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Sending good thoughts. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Sheffield.
Wishing you the best, Sanne. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Mumbai
Praying for you, Sanne. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Greetings from Kingston.
Any update on how things are going in Breda?
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 31 people at work. Greetings from Mysuru.
Sending love, Sanne. Hope you get there. Blessings
Sending good thoughts, Sanne. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
wishing you peace, Sanne. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
Hope it all works out, Sanne. This could happen to any of us. Love from Grenoble
best of luck, Sanne. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Accra.
