Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Saad's family in Hyderabad
A sudden layoff left Saad short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in June, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a 10-day notice to quit 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 October, 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 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.
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): $350
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• First month of rent as a buffer: $90
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this, Saad. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Hyderabad.
Wishing you peace, Saad. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
