Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Anand's family in Tiruchirappalli

After the closure of the factory, Anand is 2 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.

Tiruchirappalli
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Friday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500. 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 two young 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 $500 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $40 • Rent arrears (2 months): $360 • First month of rent as a buffer: $100 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Anand

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($360 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. 20% there. I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Thank you. - Anand
