Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Lorenzo's family in Palmira

After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,050. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $1,050 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $185 • Late fees and court costs: $105 • Rent arrears (5 months): $760 Thanks for being kind about this.
