After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,800. 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $1,800 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $440 • Utilities in arrears: $250 • Rent arrears (3 months): $1,110 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Manuel
