A 10-day notice to quit arrived last week. Chatchai needs $950 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Bang Khen.

After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $950.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 $950 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $185
• Rent arrears (2 months): $730
• Late fees and court costs: $35
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

So sorry you're going through this, Chatchai. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Malang
Hope it all works out, Chatchai. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bang Khen.
Sending love, Chatchai. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon
rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope December is when things finally get easier. All the best.
