Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Emil's family in Frankfurt

A delayed insurance payout left Emil short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

Frankfurt
When my hours were cut in half in June, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,950. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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 $2,950 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $950 • Rent arrears (3 months): $1,750 • Utilities in arrears: $250 If you're reading this, thank you. - Emil

    Wishing you the best, Emil. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Kathmandu so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Frankfurt
