Electricity shut-off notice: help Mwangi pay $100

Help Mwangi cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The electricity account is 3 months behind. Mwangi received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before an unexpected car repair. Mwangi called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available. The household includes a newborn, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home. Mwangi 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 $100 goes: • Gas arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $30 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Daniel
