Stop the eviction: 2 months of rent for Victor's family in Calamba
A cut in working hours left Victor short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.
🇵🇭 Calamba, Laguna, Philippines749 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450.
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've 3 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.
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 $450 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $370
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $30
Thank you so much.

Take care, Victor. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
Praying for you, Victor. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. All the best
Keep going. Hope you get there. After 28 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Calamba.

You're not alone, Victor. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted. God bless.
take care, Victor. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Calamba.
