Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Angelica's family in Manila

A long illness left Angelica short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $850. 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 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 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 $850 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $620 • Late fees and court costs: $40 • Utilities in arrears: $20 • First month of rent as a buffer: $170 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Angelica

    Hope it all works out, Angelica. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings

    • Arief HidayatQuestion

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Angelica!

      • Angelica M. AguilarOwnerAnswerAddress verified

        Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (3 months), $620. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.

    • Bikash Raju Khadka

      Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
