Electricity shut-off notice: help Eleanor pay $700

A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Eleanor needs $700 before November.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. Eleanor received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $700 is paid. She had never been late before an unexpected car repair. Eleanor called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $165 first, which isn't available. The household includes three children under ten, and going through the cold months without electricity isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Eleanor is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Eleanor's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $700 goes: • Utility arrears: $420 • Reconnection and late fees: $100 • Down payment on a payment plan: $180 Thanks for reading all this. - Anthony
