Don't let Júlia's family go through the cold months without electricity and water
A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Júlia needs $200 before September.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $200. I have never been late before June's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $40 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through the cold months without electricity and 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 Júlia's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Gas arrears: $95
• Reconnection and late fees: $60
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
With deep gratitude,
Júlia

Hope it all works out, Júlia. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
