Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $200. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby 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 $200 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $30 • Late fees and court costs: $35 • First month of rent as a buffer: $135 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
