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

After a sudden layoff at the textile factory, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $350.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave.
I've 1 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 $350 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $190
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $90

Praying for you, Faruk. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Cox's Bazar.
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Cox's Bazar.
You're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro
