After a sudden layoff at the bakery, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,850.
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 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 night deliveries, 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 $3,850 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $2,400
• Late fees and court costs: $340
• Utilities in arrears: $270
• First month of rent as a buffer: $840
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this, Jackson. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Montréal donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Newcastle upon Tyne.
So sorry you're going through this, Jackson. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Hyderabad
