Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Yuna pay $550
Yuna is behind on electricity and water bills after my partner leaving the household and needs $550 to avoid a shut-off.

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 $550. 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 $145 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through winter without electricity and water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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 $550 goes:
• Utility arrears: $230
• Reconnection and late fees: $135
• Down payment on a payment plan: $185
With deep gratitude,
Yuna
