Don't let Mahnoor's family go through winter without water

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in July. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter without water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $100 goes: • Utility arrears: $60 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $25 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
