Electricity shut-off notice: help Luana pay $200
Luana is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in February and needs $200 to avoid a shut-off.
🇧🇷 Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil418 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 $200. I have never been late before losing my job in February.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $55 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the rainy season 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 Luana's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Heating arrears: $75
• Reconnection and late fees: $55
• Down payment on a payment plan: $70
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

You're not alone, Luana. Shared it with a few friends.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Luana?
Thank you. If you're in Recife I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Greetings from Glendale.
wishing you the best, Luana. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
Rooting for you, Luana. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Recife.
