Electricity shut-off notice: help Vino pay $150

The electricity account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $150. I have never been late before August's medical emergency. 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 newborn, and going through winter 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 Vino's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Water arrears: $75 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $55 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
