Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Yusuf's family in Jakarta Barat

After a sudden layoff at the bakery, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $550. 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 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 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. 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 $550 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $135 • Late fees and court costs: $45 • Rent arrears (4 months): $370 With deep gratitude, Yusuf
