After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave.
I have three school-aged children 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 $350 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $70
• First month of rent as a buffer: $220
• Late fees and court costs: $60
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Lucía. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
