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

A disconnection notice for water arrived and Josephine needs $1,050 before May.

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $1,050. I have never been late before February's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $110 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season 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 Josephine's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $1,050 goes: • Electricity arrears: $550 • Reconnection and late fees: $175 • Down payment on a payment plan: $325 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Josephine

      Any update on how things are going in Tallahassee?

      • Good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Prayagraj

        • it takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

          • Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

            • Keep going, Josephine. Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

              • Rooting for you, Josephine. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
