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

The water account is 3 months behind. Lawrence received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before a reduction in hours. Lawrence called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which isn't available. The household includes two young children, and going through summer without water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. Lawrence is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Lawrence's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Electricity arrears: $40 • Reconnection and late fees: $10 • Down payment on a payment plan: $50 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
