Don't let Aarti's family go through the rainy season without electricity

A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Aarti needs $150 before October.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $150. I have never been late before losing my job in July. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Aarti's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Utility arrears: $85 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $45 Glad we found this place.
