When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 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 $450 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $270 • Late fees and court costs: $35 • Utilities in arrears: $20 • First month of rent as a buffer: $125 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Ayesha

Updates from Ayesha

  1. Update from Lucknow: we've started the first stage. We're at 89% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($191 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 11% now ($50). I'm honestly stunned. the first invoice got paid this week.
