Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Pedro's family in Tlaquepaque

A cut in working hours left Pedro short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter 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 October, 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 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. 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 $1,600 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $1,200 • Late fees and court costs: $110 • Utilities in arrears: $90 • First month of rent as a buffer: $200 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Pedro

    Good luck, Pedro. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. All the best.

    • Chinmay R. Chheda

      A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Gabriella P. Walker

        Thinking of you and your family, Pedro. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
