Help me with an overdue electricity bill before the rainy season

Ketki is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in May and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in May. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have. I live with two young children, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $100 goes: โ€ข Water arrears: $60 โ€ข Reconnection and late fees: $25 โ€ข Down payment on a payment plan: $15 Thank you so much.
