Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Stella's family in Corpus Christi
A notice to vacate arrived last week. Stella needs $3,750 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Corpus Christi.

When the hotel closed in September, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,750.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young 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 night deliveries, 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 $3,750 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $115
• Rent arrears (4 months): $2,750
• First month of rent as a buffer: $885
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to San Jose so I could bring a meal.
Sending love, Stella. This could happen to any of us. After 18 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Love from St. Petersburg

Take care, Stella. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
