Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Anyango's family in Mombasa
The loss of a second income left Anyango short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇰🇪 Mombasa, Mombasa, Kenya945 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $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 weekend shifts, 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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $320
• Late fees and court costs: $55
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $195
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

sending good thoughts, Anyango. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Greetings from Nagpur.
Sending strength, Anyango. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
