Don't let Berhanu's family go through summer without electricity and water
Berhanu is behind on electricity and water bills after January's medical emergency and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. Berhanu received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before January's medical emergency.
Berhanu called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a disabled brother, and going through summer without electricity and water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
Berhanu is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Berhanu's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $45
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $40
Thanks for reading all this.
