After a car accident that kept me from work for 7 weeks, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by April, we must leave.
I've 4 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 $500 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $300
• Late fees and court costs: $60
• Utilities in arrears: $50
• First month of rent as a buffer: $90
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing you the best, Mahesh. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Jinja
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Heliopolis
