Don't let Tae-yang's family go through summer without electricity and water

Tae-yang is behind on electricity and water bills after December's medical emergency and needs $450 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless I pay $450. I have never been late before December's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $75 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without electricity and 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 $450 goes: • Utility arrears: $180 • Reconnection and late fees: $90 • Down payment on a payment plan: $180 With deep gratitude, Tae-yang
