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

The electricity and water account is 2 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 June. 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 disabled brother, 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $100 goes: • Utility arrears: $80 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 Every share and every dollar helps. - Mukesh
