Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Omer's family in Gujranwala
After a divorce, Omer is 3 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.
🇵🇰 Gujranwala, Punjab, Pakistan951 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice 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 June, we must leave.
I have two young 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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: $15
• First month of rent as a buffer: $125
• Rent arrears (3 months): $210
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Keep going, Omer. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
