Don't let Javier's family go through the cold months without water

The water account is 2 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 a reduction in hours. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $45 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the cold months 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 Javier's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $200 goes: • Gas arrears: $115 • Reconnection and late fees: $50 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Javier
