When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600. 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 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 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. 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 $600 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $35 • First month of rent as a buffer: $135 • Rent arrears (2 months): $430 Thanks for reading all this. - Indira

Updates from Indira

  1. Quick update: $271 raised so far (45%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($221 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Small update. $133 so far, I made the first payment toward utilities in arrears.
