After a car accident that kept me from work for 3 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $250.
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 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 weekend shifts, 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 $250 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $160

Keep going, Lệ. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Fortaleza
Sending strength, Lệ. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Toledo.
Good luck, Lệ. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Best of luck, Lệ. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Stay strong, Lệ. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
