Electricity shut-off notice: help Rahayu pay $100
A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Rahayu needs $100 before January.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $100. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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 Rahayu's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Water arrears: $45
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $35
Thank you for reading my story.

Updates from Rahayu
Good news. Because of your gifts ($31 in total) I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

praying for you. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Quezon City
So sorry you're going through this, Rahayu. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Blessings.
Keep going, Rahayu. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
