Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave. I have two young 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 weekend shifts, 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 $3,400 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,100 • Late fees and court costs: $290 • Utilities in arrears: $200 • First month of rent as a buffer: $810 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Susanne

  • Good luck. Hope this works out for you. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you

    • Good luck, Susanne. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Iași so I could bring a meal

      • Thinking of you. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.

        • Best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Thane

          • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Düsseldorf donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

            • Good luck, Susanne. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 21 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
