The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $450. I have never been late before losing my job in August.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $165 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months without electricity and 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Zoey's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $450 goes:
• Heating arrears: $210
• Reconnection and late fees: $70
• Down payment on a payment plan: $170

Updates from Zoey
Good news. Because of your gifts ($110 in total) the plan for reconnection and late fees is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Leeds: I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. We're at 29% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Keep going, Zoey. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Milan.
Hope it all works out, Zoey. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.
Hang in there, Zoey. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Buenos Aires so I could bring a meal
Keep going, Zoey. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
You're not alone, Zoey. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours
