Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Lia's family in Bogor
The loss of a second income left Lia short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $420
• Late fees and court costs: $45
• Utilities in arrears: $20
• First month of rent as a buffer: $115
Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Lia
Good news. Because of your gifts ($102 in total) I made the first payment toward first month of rent as a buffer. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 8% thanks to 3 of you. the plan for late fees and court costs is now scheduled. More news soon.

Stay strong, Lia. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
