Don't let Petra's family go through summer without electricity
Help Petra cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this summer.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $800. I have never been late before losing my job in July.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $70 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without electricity 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $800 goes:
• Utility arrears: $490
• Reconnection and late fees: $180
• Down payment on a payment plan: $130
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
