When Yosef lost his job, the eviction notice wasn’t far behind. He had stopped paying rent, and after 4 months the landlord took it to court. With nowhere else to turn, he faced the very real possibility of losing his home. We spoke to his landlord, and paid several months of back rent, giving him the breathing room to get back on his feet. Together with community partners, we helped him find a new job and before long, he was fully caught up on his payments. A few months later, as his child’s wedding approached, he was at risk of slipping back into financial strain. Once again, we stepped in and raised thousands to make sure he could celebrate the simcha without falling into debt.
One moment of intervention became the foundation for lasting stability.
