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 $350.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I've 4 children 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 night deliveries, 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 $350 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• Rent arrears (5 months): $300
• Late fees and court costs: $25
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong, Yogesh. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Hang in there, Yogesh. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. Love from Warri
Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
