Gracie and Joe were a day away from eviction when BEDS delivered a check to their landlord for two months’ late rent. They experienced hardships that impacted their income and housing stability. “A combination of things put us at risk,” shared Gracie.
In addition to past due rent, we provided financial assistance for the couple’s utility bills and transportation to medical visits.
When BEDS dropped off the check that stopped the eviction and all the costs, I was in tears,” said Grace.
