After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $450 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $390 • Utilities in arrears: $25 • Late fees and court costs: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Mukasa

  • Best of luck, Mukasa. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Lahore.

    • thinking of you, Mukasa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
