Electricity shut-off notice: help Kamran pay $100

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September 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 $20 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without electricity 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Kamran's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $75 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 Thank you for reading my story.
