Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Ricardo's family in Iztapalapa

A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Ricardo needs $950 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Iztapalapa.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $950. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $950 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $210 • Late fees and court costs: $85 • Rent arrears (2 months): $655 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    hang in there. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We're a small family in Dallas but we're thinking of you. All the best
