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

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $750. I have never been late before losing my job in August. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $65 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Markus's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $750 goes: • Electricity arrears: $490 • Reconnection and late fees: $100 • Down payment on a payment plan: $160 Glad we found this place. - Markus
