Don't let Jade's family go through the rainy season without water

Jade is behind on water bills after losing my job in July and needs $650 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $650. I have never been late before losing my job in July. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $135 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season without water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at 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 Jade's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $650 goes: • Water arrears: $270 • Reconnection and late fees: $175 • Down payment on a payment plan: $205 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
