Santiago received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
The closure of the factory left Santiago short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

After a sudden layoff at the bakery, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,800.
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'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 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $2,800 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $260
• First month of rent as a buffer: $790
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,750
Glad we found this place.

So sorry you're going through this, Santiago. Shared this with my family. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope it all works out, Santiago. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
Thinking of you, Santiago. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
Sending good thoughts, Santiago. Hope this works out for you. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
so sorry you're going through this, Santiago. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
Thinking of you, Santiago. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Los Angeles
take care, Santiago. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Jodhpur so I could bring a meal.
