Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Juan's family in Guadalupe
After the loss of a second income, Juan is 3 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,500.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, 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 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 $1,500 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,000
• Late fees and court costs: $110
• Utilities in arrears: $110
• First month of rent as a buffer: $280
Thanks for reading all this.

Hang in there. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Blessings
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Buenos Aires so I could bring a meal.
Best of luck, Juan. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Take care.
rooting for you, Juan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best
