Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Adrian's family in Cleveland
After the loss of a second income, Adrian is 3 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.
🇺🇸 Cleveland, Ohio, United States4,929 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $5,250.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, 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 night deliveries, 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 $5,250 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $3,650
• Late fees and court costs: $200
• Utilities in arrears: $220
• First month of rent as a buffer: $1,180
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
