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

After a car accident that kept me from work for 4 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $800.
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've 3 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.
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 $800 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $610
• Late fees and court costs: $25
• First month of rent as a buffer: $165
With deep gratitude,
Deepa

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Amritsar
Thank you. If you're in Amritsar I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Recife but we're thinking of you.
