Don't let Christopher's family go through the rainy season without electricity
Help Christopher cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The electricity account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $900. I have never been late before August's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $60 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $900 goes:
• Heating arrears: $590
• Reconnection and late fees: $165
• Down payment on a payment plan: $145
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you, Christopher. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Bangkok this morning
Keep going, Christopher. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
