Dwarka
When the warehouse closed in June, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $450. 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 teenager still in school 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 $450 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $30 • Utilities in arrears: $40 • Rent arrears (5 months): $380 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

  • Sending good thoughts, Yash. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Sydney donated after I showed her your page

    • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Soweto.
