Don't let Nikhil's family go through summer without water
Nikhil is behind on water bills after August's medical emergency and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $100. I have never been late before August's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer 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 Nikhil's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Water arrears: $65
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $10
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Updates from Nikhil
Small update. $20 so far, the plan for water arrears is now scheduled.
Quick update: $30 raised so far (30%). I made the first payment toward down payment on a payment plan. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
