Vincent received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A final eviction notice arrived last week. Vincent needs $900 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Saint-Denis.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $900. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave. I have three school-aged 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $900 goes: • Utilities in arrears: $160 • First month of rent as a buffer: $570 • Late fees and court costs: $170 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Vincent

    Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Saint-Denis!

        Thinking of you and your family, Vincent. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
