The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $110. I have never been late before a reduction in hours. 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 newborn, and going through winter without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 Ilham's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $110 goes: • Electricity arrears: $80 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 Thank you so much. - Ilham

      I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Medan.

      • can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Medan

        • Thank you. If you're in Medan I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.

      • So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Oakland so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Fresno.

        • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Chennai donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

          • Best of luck, Ilham. Hope this works out for you. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you

            • Praying for you, Ilham. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.

              • Hope you get there. Sent it to 9 people at work. Blessings

                  Keep going. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Kharkiv.

                  • Hope it all works out, Ilham. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

                    • Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Bhaktapur.

                      • rooting for you. 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. All the best.

                        • good luck, Ilham. Hope this works out for you.
