Help the Alvarez family stay in their home

A medical bill landed in the same month as the rent. We need a bridge, not a rescue.

The story

We've rented the same house in East Austin for eleven years. In August my husband's appendix ruptured and the hospital bill took every dollar we'd set aside for the rent. The landlord has been good to us, but he can't wait forever. This is a two-month bridge: enough to clear the overdue rent and keep the kids in the school they've always gone to. Both of us are back at work, and we're on a payment plan for the medical side. If you can help, thank you. If you can only share this, that helps too — someone in your feed might know what it's like to be one bad month away.

How the funds will be used

Two months of overdue rent ($1,875 each) and the water bill that carried over.
