Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Dante's family in Quezon City
After a car accident, Dante is 3 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines1,200 views
When the textile factory closed in July, 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 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.
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): $260
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Utilities in arrears: $35
• First month of rent as a buffer: $170
Every share and every dollar helps.

how is Dante doing now?
Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Hang in there, Dante. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Thinking of you, Dante. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
