When my hours were cut in half in April, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $550.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, we must leave.
I've 2 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 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 $550 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $360
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
• Late fees and court costs: $60
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

how is Anjali doing now?
Thinking of you and your family, Anjali. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Thanks for sharing this, Anjali. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together.
