Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Hiba's family in Shubra
The closure of the factory left Hiba short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When the restaurant closed in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350.
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 a teenager still in school 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.
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 $350 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $45
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Rent arrears (3 months): $265
With deep gratitude,
Hiba

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Hiba.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. utilities in arrears is the biggest at $45. Thanks for asking.
