Don't let Dinesh's family go through winter without water
Help Dinesh cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this winter.
Anywhere in the world1,065 views
The water account is 2 months behind. Dinesh received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before an unexpected car repair.
Dinesh called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter without water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
Dinesh is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Dinesh's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Utility arrears: $80
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $10
I hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this, Akash. Looking forward to the next update. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Love from Portland.
Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Lahore
Hope it all works out. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 10 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
You're not alone, Akash. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
