Following a long illness in the family, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600. 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've 3 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. 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 $600 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $380 • Late fees and court costs: $35 • Utilities in arrears: $55 • First month of rent as a buffer: $130 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Teresita

    Stay strong, Teresita. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Taguig
