Electricity shut-off notice: help Kun pay $800
Kun is behind on electricity bills after an unexpected car repair and needs $800 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. Kun received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $800 is paid. He had never been late before an unexpected car repair.
Kun called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $105 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a newborn, and going through summer without electricity isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
Kun is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $800 goes:
• Utility arrears: $580
• Reconnection and late fees: $65
• Down payment on a payment plan: $155
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope things get better soon, Jia. Shared this with my family. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Eugene
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Ubud.
Sending strength. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too

Praying for you, Jia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Toledo.

Looking forward to the next update. After 16 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Toledo.
