Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Naomi's family in El Paso
A sudden layoff left Naomi short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

When the warehouse closed in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,550.
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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $3,550 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $2,700
• Late fees and court costs: $200
• Utilities in arrears: $115
• First month of rent as a buffer: $535
If you're reading this, thank you.

Praying for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Gdańsk
