Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Farah's family in Nice
A notice to vacate arrived last week. Farah needs $2,950 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Nice.

After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,950.
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 three school-aged 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 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 $2,950 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $140
• Rent arrears (2 months): $2,400
• First month of rent as a buffer: $410
Thanks for being kind about this.
