Help Esther with an overdue electricity and water bill before the rainy season

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. Esther received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before an unexpected car repair. Esther called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which isn't available. The household includes a newborn, and going through the rainy season without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Esther is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Esther's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $50 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Chidinma
