Keep the electricity and water on at Chae-won's home in Busan
Help Chae-won cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $400. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $60 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through the rainy season without electricity and water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Chae-won's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $400 goes:
• Utility arrears: $290
• Reconnection and late fees: $55
• Down payment on a payment plan: $55

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Chae-won
Sure. The biggest one is utility arrears, $290. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
So sorry you're going through this, Chae-won. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Praying for you, Chae-won. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Busan.
a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
You're not alone, Chae-won. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Taguig.
