Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Andrzej's family in Katowice

A delayed insurance payout left Andrzej short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,650. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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 $1,650 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $1,100 • Late fees and court costs: $85 • Utilities in arrears: $120 • First month of rent as a buffer: $345 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Good luck, Andrzej. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Taguig.

    • Emilio P. Ramírez

      so sorry you're going through this, Andrzej. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care

      • Zaid Khalid Lotfy

        Stay strong, Andrzej. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Auckland this morning. Love from Auckland.

        • Lorena Patrícia CastroQuestion

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Andrzej.

          • Andrzej LewandowskiOwnerAnswer

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. rent arrears (4 months) comes first ($1,100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.
