Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Jun's family in Lapu-Lapu
A long illness left Jun short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇵🇭 Lapu-Lapu, Cebu, Philippines1,362 views
When my hours were cut in half in January, Jun fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $650.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by April, 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.
Jun 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $650 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $410
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $185
Thanks for being kind about this.

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together. Love from Bangkok.
Good luck, Sheila. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
