Costly Medical Treatments Caused Me to Fall Behind on Rent, & We Need Urgent Help to Avoid Eviction!

My Story:

I am a single of mother of three children, two girls and one boy. They're all school-age still, and they all love sports ranging from basketball and baseball to volleyball. We love to spend time together watching movies and playing and watching sports together. It seems like my children are always at practice for one extracurricular or another!

While I make enough to cover our bills normally, we do live on a tight budget month to month. I fell behind on our rent payments after paying for medical and dental expenses related to treatment I urgently needed. This has completely wiped out my savings, and I've exhausted all other possible resources to try to catch-up on rent, but we're still going to come up short. We're in a really bad bind right now, and it could cost us our home if we can't find help soon.

I'm reaching out for help with our rent because we're on the brink of eviction. We're not protected under the moratorium because our hardship wasn't deemed Covid-19 related, so our landlord can file an eviction against us at any time. I'm so scared that I'm going to come home from work to a 'pay or vacate' notice posted to our door' and that we'll have to gather our belongings and head to a shelter or worse. Still, I have faith in myself and my family to recover from this situation if we're able to get the help we so desperately need. Truly, we would never forget the people who come together to help us in our time of need, and I would like to say 'thank you' to everyone who even just considers helping us and for taking the time to read our story.
