The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in February.
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 an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without water 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 Ephrem's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Water arrears: $45
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts, Ephrem. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Blessings
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ephrem.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. water arrears comes first ($45) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.
keep going, Ephrem. Shared this with my family. All the best.
Thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Albany this morning. Love from Albany
Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Jeddah but we're thinking of you. Take care
