Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Abdul's family in Chattogram
After a divorce, Abdul is 2 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, Abdul fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $200.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, the family must leave.
There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Abdul has started working extra hours at a market stall, and is 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 $200 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $125
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• Late fees and court costs: $55
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope things get better soon. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Málaga.
Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Hang in there, Tuhin. Shared it with a few friends.
Take care. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Fresno this morning.
Thanks for sharing this, Tuhin. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
