At the end of October, Chastity moved into an apartment in Dorchester. Upon moving in she was told there were no pest issues in the building. Within days of living there, Chastity saw mice in the apartment, most notably in the stove top, making her unable to cook until the situation was resolved. The pests also ate through food bags and dog food bags. 

Chastity let the landlord know about the issue, which she was given a hard time about. The landlord said he would exterminate her apartment (the top floor of a triple decker home), but he refused to exterminate the other two floors, defeating the purpose of exterminating her floor.

When she stated that exterminating only one floor was not sufficient, she asked to be released from the lease. She has been allowed to leave the lease, but the landlord is refusing to give her deposit back, even though the apartment is not entirely habitable.

In the middle of this Chastity came down with RSV and was unable to work for a full week, which further exacerbated this issue. 

She is now fighting to get her deposit back and is raising funds to move into a safer space. She has found an apartment and has been approved. However, moving in Boston often requires first month's rent, last month's rent, security deposit, and broker fee. Chastity does not have the money saved to be able to do this after just moving a month ago. Please help us raise $6,000 so Chastity can move into a safe and healthy living situation ASAP
