Sowmya received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A long illness left Sowmya short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $800. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $800 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $560 • Late fees and court costs: $35 • Utilities in arrears: $50 • First month of rent as a buffer: $155 If you're reading this, thank you. - Sowmya
