Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Angel's family in Birmingham
A 10-day notice to quit arrived last week. Angel needs $2,600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Birmingham.

When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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 $2,600 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $210
• Late fees and court costs: $200
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,190
With deep gratitude,
Angel

Hope it all works out, Angel. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Sending love. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Greetings from Riyadh

sending strength. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps!
Thinking of you and your family. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out
