Don't let Vincent's family go through the cold months without water

Vincent is behind on water bills after losing my job in May and needs $650 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $650. I have never been late before losing my job in May. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $70 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the cold months 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Vincent's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $650 goes: • Electricity arrears: $410 • Reconnection and late fees: $90 • Down payment on a payment plan: $150 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

due date: 2026-08-01
bill type: Utility arrears

Updates from Vincent

Quick update: $371 raised so far (57%). the plan for down payment on a payment plan is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 40% funded and I made the first payment toward electricity arrears.
