After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a retail supervisor in Dhaka and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing. I'm looking for a spare room for 4 months. I can pay $40 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have a landlord and employer references. I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      • good luck, Shakil. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page.
