Heating shut-off notice: help Mwanaisha pay $55

The heating account is 3 months behind. Mwanaisha received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $55 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours. Mwanaisha called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available. The household includes an elderly mother, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. Mwanaisha is working on getting back on her 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 $55 goes: • Water arrears: $40 • Reconnection and late fees: $10 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - James
