We're still at 320/730 and rent is due tomorrow. Can you help Kristen stay housed? We've been paying down the back rent as we pay the current rent but not being able to pay this month puts her further behind.
Literally anything we pay helps show her landlord that we're trying.

We're getting closer to the end of the month and Kristen's in danger of eviction if we can't get her rent paid. She's 320/730 for the month.
If 40 people donate $10, we can get this paid. Can you help with even $5? Or a share?
