After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 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 $3,750. 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 have two young 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 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 $3,750 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $3,050 • Utilities in arrears: $220 • First month of rent as a buffer: $480 Every share and every dollar helps.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Weston. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Howrah but we're thinking of you!

          • Hope it all works out, Weston. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Dublin donated after I showed her your page.
