Electricity shut-off notice: help Srinivas pay $100
Help Srinivas cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇮🇳 Saket, Delhi, IndiaPosted Oct 1, 20261,228 views
The electricity account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December 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 $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at 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 Srinivas's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $45
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $40
Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Srinivas
Good news. Because of your gifts ($10 in total) I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($25 in total) the plan for down payment on a payment plan is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Update from Saket: we've started the first stage. We're at 45% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us. - Srinivas

Good luck, Srinivas. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Sacramento
Sending love, Srinivas. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
