Don't let Bukola's family go through summer without electricity
Bukola is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in April and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. Bukola received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $150 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in April.
Bukola called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through summer without electricity isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
Bukola is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Bukola's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Gas arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $40
With deep gratitude,
Usman
