Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Büşra's family in Ankara
A notice to vacate arrived last week. Büşra needs $1,000 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Ankara.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,000.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $220
• Utilities in arrears: $70
• Rent arrears (5 months): $710
Thanks for reading all this.

Take care. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Rockford
gave what I could, wish it was more. After 9 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best.
Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Ankara.
Hope it all works out, Büşra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Noida this morning.
Praying for you, Büşra. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
Best of luck, Büşra. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
