Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Larysa's family in Saint Petersburg
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Larysa needs $900 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Saint Petersburg.

After a sudden layoff at the packaging plant, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $900.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 $900 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $480
• Late fees and court costs: $55
• Utilities in arrears: $90
• First month of rent as a buffer: $275
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Larysa?
You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Dublin.
