Don't let Yu-na's family go through summer without water

Yu-na is behind on water bills after a reduction in hours and needs $500 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $500. 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 $60 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without water 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $500 goes: • Water arrears: $300 • Reconnection and late fees: $95 • Down payment on a payment plan: $105 If you're reading this, thank you.

Updates from Yu-na

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($235 in total) the plan for water arrears is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

      Keep going. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope August is when things finally get easier. All the best.

        Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Agra.

          Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
