Don't let Christopher's family go through summer without electricity and water
A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Christopher needs $650 before October.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. Christopher received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $650 is paid. He had never been late before an unexpected car repair.
Christopher called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $130 first, which isn't available.
The household includes two young children, and going through summer without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
Christopher is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $650 goes:
• Gas arrears: $330
• Reconnection and late fees: $135
• Down payment on a payment plan: $185
I hope life is good to you.

Wishing you the best. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 18 people at work. Take care.
