Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Omer's family in Lahore

A sudden layoff left Omer short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When the hotel closed in March, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500. 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 a teenager still in school 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $500 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $380 • First month of rent as a buffer: $80 • Late fees and court costs: $40 Thanks for being kind about this.
