Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Ronaldo's family in Campinas
A long illness left Ronaldo short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, Brazil644 views
When the textile factory closed in June, 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 $1,300.
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 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 $1,300 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $250
• Rent arrears (5 months): $960
• Late fees and court costs: $90
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending good thoughts, Ronaldo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Mysuru

Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.

Thanks for sharing this, Ronaldo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Ronaldo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Thinking of you and your family, Ronaldo. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Chicago.
Good luck, Ronaldo. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. God bless
