Don't let Roberto's family go through winter without water
Roberto is behind on water bills after April's medical emergency and needs $200 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 July unless I pay $200. I have never been late before April's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $40 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter without 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Roberto's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Heating arrears: $105
• Reconnection and late fees: $50
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending love, Roberto. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hope things get better soon, Roberto. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.
