Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Sinta's family in Bandung

When my hours were cut in half in June, Sinta fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $500. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave. There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Sinta has started working two part-time jobs, and is 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 $500 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $125 • Utilities in arrears: $30 • Rent arrears (5 months): $345 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Irfan
