Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Mazen pay $100

A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Mazen needs $100 before July.

The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $100. 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 $15 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $100 goes: • Utility arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $10 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Mazen

  1. We're at 90% thanks to 3 of you. I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

  2. Quick update: $70 raised so far (70%). I made the first payment toward utility arrears. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

    Rooting for you, Mazen. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
