After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650.
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 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 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 $650 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $115
• Rent arrears (2 months): $510
• Late fees and court costs: $25
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

you're not alone, Kristine. Hope you get there
Thinking of you and your family, Kristine. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Hope it all works out, Kristine. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
