Stop the eviction: 3 months of rent for Yogesh's family in Nashik
The closure of the factory left Yogesh short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India1,496 views
When the bakery closed in January, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $550.
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 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 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 $550 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $340
• Late fees and court costs: $25
• Utilities in arrears: $55
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

wishing you the best, Yogesh. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Swansea donated after I showed her your page. Love from Swansea.
Hang in there, Yogesh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Nashik.
Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Surat.
Thinking of you and your family, Yogesh. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together
Stay strong, Yogesh. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Xalapa this morning. Greetings from Xalapa.
Thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My husband and I read this together!
Wishing you peace, Yogesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
Stay strong, Yogesh. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Greetings from London.
