The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $150. 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 $20 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 Ximena's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Utility arrears: $60
• Reconnection and late fees: $45
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
Thank you so much.

Rooting for you. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Girona donated after I showed her your page
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Arusha.
take care. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. All the best.
