When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 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. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $1,050 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $710 • Late fees and court costs: $55 • Utilities in arrears: $65 • First month of rent as a buffer: $220 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Mumbai.

    • Sending love, Deniz. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

      • Keep going, Deniz. Shared this with my family
