Don't let Diego's family go through winter without electricity
A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Diego needs $900 before June.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on June unless I pay $900. I have never been late before losing my job in April.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $160 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through winter without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
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 Diego's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $900 goes:
• Utility arrears: $520
• Reconnection and late fees: $90
• Down payment on a payment plan: $290
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck, Diego. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in San Antonio but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Arlington
Stay strong, Diego. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend!
Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Boulogne-Billancourt.
Hope you get there. Greetings from Cần Thơ!
Hang in there, Diego. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page. Love from Los Angeles.
Hang in there. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Dar es Salaam
