Following a long illness in the family, Danielle fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,500. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave. There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Danielle has started working evenings as a cleaner, 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 $3,500 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,600 • Late fees and court costs: $300 • Utilities in arrears: $210 • First month of rent as a buffer: $390 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Joyce

  • Hope it all works out, Joyce. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.

    • Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Madrid.
