Don't let Yuto's family go through summer without electricity
A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Yuto needs $300 before December.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $300. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $90 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $300 goes:
• Utility arrears: $170
• Reconnection and late fees: $55
• Down payment on a payment plan: $75
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Sukkur.
