Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Kinsley pay $750
Help Kinsley cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this winter.
Anywhere in the world1,798 views
The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $750. I have never been late before October's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $95 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through winter 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 Kinsley's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $750 goes:
• Heating arrears: $380
• Reconnection and late fees: $140
• Down payment on a payment plan: $230
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
