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

The electricity account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $200. I have never been late before July's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Elena's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $140
• Reconnection and late fees: $30
• Down payment on a payment plan: $30
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Odesa
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about electricity arrears, advice is welcome too. Thanks for looking so closely.
So sorry you're going through this, Elena. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Bandung
Hope things get better soon, Elena. Shared this with my family. Blessings!
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Kano.
