Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Maria's family in Piraeus
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Maria needs $1,600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Piraeus.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, we must leave.
I've 1 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 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $990
• Late fees and court costs: $175
• Utilities in arrears: $130
• First month of rent as a buffer: $305
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Sending strength, Maria. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Jeddah.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Obuasi but we're thinking of you. Love from Obuasi.
