Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Tomasz's family in Kraków
A termination letter arrived last week. Tomasz needs $1,700 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Kraków.

When my hours were cut in half in April, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,700.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, 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 weekend shifts, 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 $1,700 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $970
• Late fees and court costs: $155
• Utilities in arrears: $130
• First month of rent as a buffer: $445
With deep gratitude,
Tomasz
