Don't let Lorenzo's family go through summer without electricity and water

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November 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 $30 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through summer 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 Lorenzo's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Gas arrears: $90 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $40 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
