Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Budi's family in Bekasi
A cut in working hours left Budi short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit 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 October, 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:
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $85
• Rent arrears (4 months): $425
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Kampala so I could bring a meal. Take care.
