A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Yu-na needs $3,700 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Albuquerque.

After a sudden layoff at the warehouse, 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 $3,700. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, 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 $3,700 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $135 • First month of rent as a buffer: $480 • Rent arrears (2 months): $3,085 Thank you for reading my story. - Yu-na

    Take care, Yu-na. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Albuquerque.
