Don't let Dinesh's family go through the rainy season without electricity

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $100. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. 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 $100 goes: • Electricity arrears: $40 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
