Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Arianna's family in Coventry

After a long illness, Arianna is 4 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 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 $3,400 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $180 • Rent arrears (4 months): $2,550 • First month of rent as a buffer: $670 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
