Don't let Kathleen's family go through summer without water

The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $150. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have. I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer 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 Kathleen's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Electricity arrears: $105 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $20 Thanks for reading all this. - Kathleen
