Dear_____________________________________:

	We understand that sometimes situations come up that are beyond your immediate control. When this occurs, it can create a serious financial challenge to meet all your obligations. Since having shelter is your most important financial obligation,   I know that even when serious problems occur, you will do all you can to pay the rent and make sure that you will have a place for you and your family to live. To offer you assistance so that you hopefully will never have to be evicted, the management staff has contacted community agencies and local churches in the area that have previously been able to offer assistance to individuals facing financial difficulties. If assistance is needed now, or in the near future, in paying your rent, we suggest that you try contacting them immediately. While we cant promise that they will always be able to help, they have helped others in the past. These agencies and churches may need verification from the owner or manager regarding payment due, and we will be glad to respond to their requests. Have them contact us at the following number ____________________ if they need our assistance and we will also provide them with our address where they can send financial assistance for rent. 
            Please understand however, that although it's our policy to offer helpful suggestions, during the time you are working with any agencies or churches to come up with the money, until rent is actually paid, our nonpayment policies and steps toward eviction procedures must still be followed. That is why we encourage you to make contact with these agencies, relatives, friends and any others who may provide you assistance as soon as possible, so that you can come up with the money before final eviction takes place. And be sure to contact us as soon as you received funds for your payment due. The  following are the names and numbers of agencies and churches that may be able to help you:
