Serhiy received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
The loss of a second income left Serhiy short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When the bakery closed in November, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,450.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, 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 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 $1,450 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,000
• Late fees and court costs: $70
• Utilities in arrears: $70
• First month of rent as a buffer: $310
Glad we found this place.

How is Serhiy doing now?
Hope it all works out. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless.
Wishing you the best, Serhiy. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you. God bless!
Keep going, Serhiy. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Los Angeles.
Hope it all works out, Serhiy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
