Help Saima with an overdue electricity bill before summer
Help Saima cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this summer.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. Saima received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in June.
Saima 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 parent on oxygen therapy, and going through summer without electricity isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
Saima is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Saima's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $65
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $25
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you the best, Maryam. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Stay strong, Maryam. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
Thanks for sharing this, Maryam. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Haarlem but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
keep going, Maryam. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 3 people at work. Love from Tampa.
Hope it all works out, Maryam. It takes guts to ask. Well done
