Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Artur pay $300

Help Artur cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this summer.

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $300. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $40 first, which I don't have. I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the 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 Artur's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $300 goes: • Gas arrears: $155 • Reconnection and late fees: $35 • Down payment on a payment plan: $110 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      Stay strong, Artur. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 19 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
