Don't let Ngozika's family go through the rainy season without electricity

Ngozika is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in August and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. Ngozika received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in August. Ngozika called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available. The household includes three children under ten, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home. Ngozika is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Ngozika's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $45 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $40 With deep gratitude, Sade
