Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Fajar's family in Jakarta

After the loss of a second income, Fajar is 3 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.

After a sudden layoff at the call centre, Fajar fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $700. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave. There are a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Fajar has started working two part-time jobs, 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 $700 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $450 • Late fees and court costs: $40 • Utilities in arrears: $20 • First month of rent as a buffer: $190 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Bayu

        Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Flint.
