Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Lipi's family in Dhaka
A notice to vacate arrived last week. Lipi needs $350 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Dhaka.

When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350.
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 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 $350 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $20
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• Rent arrears (2 months): $310
Thanks for being kind about this.
