Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Théo's family in Toulon
After a sudden layoff, Théo is 3 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.
🇫🇷 Toulon, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France2,553 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 10 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,950.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, we must leave.
I've 2 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 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 $2,950 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,050
• Late fees and court costs: $185
• Utilities in arrears: $160
• First month of rent as a buffer: $555
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Théo.
Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (3 months), $2,050. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
hope this works out for you. After 15 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything
how is Théo doing now?
Thanks for sharing this, Théo. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Sandton
You're not alone, Théo. Your post was clear and honest. After 28 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Toulon.
Thank you. If you're in Toulon I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Your post was clear and honest. I hope May is when things finally get easier.
a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. I'll ask around and let you know.
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Thanks for sharing this, Théo. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
sending strength, Théo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Blessings.
best of luck, Théo. Shared this with my family. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Chiang Mai.
