After a car accident that kept me from work for 8 weeks, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,950. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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. 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 $1,950 goes: โ€ข Utilities in arrears: $290 โ€ข Late fees and court costs: $260 โ€ข Rent arrears (5 months): $1,400 Thank you for reading my story. - Lukas

  • Hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Butwal!

    • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Lukas?

        Thank you. If you're in Munich I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.

    • it takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Nairobi!

      • You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Bang Khen so I could bring a meal.

        • Sending strength, Lukas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best

          • Take care, Lukas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care

            • Good luck, Lukas. Shared this with my family. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
