Electricity shut-off notice: help Cameron pay $600
Help Cameron cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇺🇸 United States660 views
The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $600. 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 $70 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer without electricity 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 Cameron's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $600 goes:
• Heating arrears: $350
• Reconnection and late fees: $100
• Down payment on a payment plan: $150
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Petrópolis.
thinking of you, Cameron. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
Praying for you, Cameron. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Keep going. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. Take care!
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Riverside.

Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Sending love. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Greetings from Hialeah.
