Help Yaa with an overdue electricity bill before the rainy season
A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Yaa needs $100 before June.
🇬🇭 GA-638-6622, Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana1,025 views
The electricity account is 3 months behind. Yaa received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on June unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Yaa called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which isn't available.
The household includes two young children, and going through the rainy season without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Yaa is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Yaa's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $55
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.
