Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Maeve's family in Dublin
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Maeve needs $3,050 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Dublin.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by March, 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 night deliveries, 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 $3,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,800
• Late fees and court costs: $300
• Utilities in arrears: $170
• First month of rent as a buffer: $780
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Dublin.
Looking forward to the next update. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
