After a sudden layoff at the packaging plant, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400. 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 two young 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 $3,400 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $180 • Late fees and court costs: $270 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,950 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Isaiah

  • Take care, Isaiah. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Jerusalem

    • You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Seville.

      • Take care. Shared it with a few friends. I hope September is when things finally get easier. God bless

        • Thinking of you, Isaiah. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

          • gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Sakai

            • Sending good thoughts. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.

              • A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Suwon

                • Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 31 people at work. Blessings
