Don't let Evgeny's family go through winter without water

Help Evgeny cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this winter.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $200. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $50 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through winter 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $200 goes: • Electricity arrears: $80 • Reconnection and late fees: $35 • Down payment on a payment plan: $85 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • How is Evgeny doing now?

    • Best of luck, Evgeny. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Evgeny

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. electricity arrears comes first ($80) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.

      • Rooting for you, Evgeny. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Palmira.

        • you're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Kolkata.

          • so sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Novosibirsk
