Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Faith's family in San Antonio
The closure of the factory left Faith short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇺🇸 San Antonio, Texas, United States1,184 views
When the bakery closed in April, 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 $1,000.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $1,000 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $120
• Late fees and court costs: $370
• First month of rent as a buffer: $510
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Bengaluru so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Faith. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Sending strength, Faith. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
sending love, Faith. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Hope it all works out, Faith. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of San Antonio.
