Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Titilayo's family in Epe

A termination letter arrived last week. Titilayo needs $400 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Epe.

Following a long illness in the family, Titilayo fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $400. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave. There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Titilayo has started working evenings as a cleaner, 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 $400 goes: • Rent arrears (5 months): $290 • Late fees and court costs: $20 • Utilities in arrears: $20 • First month of rent as a buffer: $70 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
