Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Vadym's family in Odesa

A termination letter arrived last week. Vadym needs $450 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Odesa.

After a sudden layoff at the warehouse, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave. I have a teenager still in school 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $450 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $320 • Utilities in arrears: $30 • First month of rent as a buffer: $100 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Vadym

    Sending good thoughts, Vadym. I hope things turn around soon. After 23 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

    • Dennis Solomon Mensah

      You're not alone. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in London this morning. God bless.

        Sending good thoughts, Vadym. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Wollongong so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Odesa.
