Hello all, I don’t know what to do. I’m a student nurse currently on placement and I have 2 holidays this month. Malta 11-15 and France 18-24th of June. Everything has been paid for. Airbnb, flights, train and transfers have all been booked. I had my spending money for both my holidays but an unexpected funeral back home in Zimbabwe came in and I had to use all the spending money to help and have no money for the holiday. I obviously don’t want to cancel any but I could cancel France because they are 6ppl so if I cancel they are still people and no one is left but with Malta is only one other girl I am going with. She is the same girl I will be going France with and I feel bad cancelling for Malta since she will be left alone. Does anyone have any advice ?? These holidays have been booked since last year as well Edit: Extra info I have tried to ask work for an advance and got rejected. I haven’t asked for one before I tried asking uni for hardship fund and they took forever to contact back and when they did, they said the application are closed 🫠 My Sfe is already low at 1.3 k for the entire year even after requesting an increase.

I honestly don't know what my next step should be, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. My mom and I are currently about $400 short on rent, and if we can't come up with it by Friday, we're at risk of losing our housing. This is the first time we've ever been in a situation like this. I've already spoken with our landlord, explained everything, and asked if there was any flexibility, but unfortunately she isn't willing to work with us. I do have a job, but my hours have been cut significantly and my recent paychecks haven't been enough to cover everything. I can provide pay stubs if needed, and I can also provide documentation from my landlord regarding the situation. To be clear, I'm not here asking for handouts or money. I'm just trying to figure out what options I still have left and what my next step should be. The stress from the past week has been overwhelming, and I'm trying to stay focused on solutions instead of panicking. Does anyone know of any emergency rental assistance programs, charities, churches, community organizations, or subreddits that might be able to point me in the right direction? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, before anyone mentions some of the groups or communities I'm active in, many of those involve things I'd like to pursue in the future, but right now my focus is simply keeping a roof over our heads. Thank you to anyone willing to offer advice or guidance.
