Keep the electricity and water on at Dennis's home in Takoradi

Dennis is behind on electricity and water bills after July's medical emergency and needs $105 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. Dennis received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $105 is paid. He had never been late before July's medical emergency. Dennis called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available. The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. Dennis is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $105 goes: โ€ข Utility arrears: $85 โ€ข Reconnection and late fees: $15 โ€ข Down payment on a payment plan: $5 Thank you so much. - Kwabena
