Don't let Silke's family go through the rainy season without water
A disconnection notice for water arrived and Silke needs $450 before October.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $450. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $95 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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 $450 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $220
• Reconnection and late fees: $110
• Down payment on a payment plan: $120
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Silke. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
