Don't let Vino's family go through winter without water

The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $50. I have never been late before losing my job in July. 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 an elderly mother, and going through winter 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 $50 goes: • Electricity arrears: $35 • Reconnection and late fees: $10 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Vino
