Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Armando's family in San Diego

After a sudden layoff at the warehouse, Armando fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,850. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave. There are a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Armando has started working night deliveries, and is 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 $2,850 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $185 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,350 • Late fees and court costs: $315 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - José
