Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Greyson's family in Geelong
A car accident left Greyson short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇦🇺 Australia2,468 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave.
I have three school-aged children 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 two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $2,600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,250
• Late fees and court costs: $165
• Utilities in arrears: $290
• First month of rent as a buffer: $895
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you peace, Greyson. Hope this works out for you. Blessings!
Thanks for sharing this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Rooting for you, Greyson. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Wishing you the best, Greyson. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Geelong.
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Tallahassee.
stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from El Paso.
Sending strength, Greyson. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
