Don't let Sinta's family go through summer without electricity

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in August. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Sinta's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $45 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $30 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Sinta
