Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Bithi's family in Narayanganj
After a sudden layoff, Bithi is 3 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500.
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 a toddler and a baby 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.
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 $500 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $320
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $15
• First month of rent as a buffer: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Bithi?
Thank you. If you're in Narayanganj I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing you peace, Bithi. Shared it with a few friends.
