Don't let Rowena's family go through winter without water
Help Rowena cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this winter.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $150. I have never been late before September's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $30 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $150 goes:
• Utility arrears: $90
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $35
Every share and every dollar helps.

Sending love, Rowena. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 13 people at work. God bless.
Sending love, Rowena. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
