Don't let Pedro's family go through winter without water
Pedro is behind on water bills after May's medical emergency and needs $250 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $250. I have never been late before May's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $55 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through winter without water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
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 Pedro's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $250 goes:
• Gas arrears: $155
• Reconnection and late fees: $40
• Down payment on a payment plan: $55
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope things get better soon, Pedro. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 4 people at work.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up. Thinking of Tehuacán
