Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Rani's family in Nashik

A termination letter arrived last week. Rani needs $400 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Nashik.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 3 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $400. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave. I have three school-aged 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $400 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $35 • Rent arrears (3 months): $250 • First month of rent as a buffer: $115 With deep gratitude, Rani

        Sending love, Rani. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 10 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
