Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Océane's family in Paris
A long illness left Océane short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday 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 August, we must leave.
I have a toddler and a baby 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $3,850 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $2,900
• Late fees and court costs: $160
• Utilities in arrears: $195
• First month of rent as a buffer: $595

Sending strength, Océane. Hope you get there.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Océane?
rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Paris.
