Keep the electricity and water on at Gabriela's home in Santos

Gabriela is behind on electricity and water bills after losing my job in April and needs $300 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $300. I have never been late before losing my job in April. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $35 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through winter without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 Gabriela's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $300 goes: โ€ข Gas arrears: $150 โ€ข Reconnection and late fees: $55 โ€ข Down payment on a payment plan: $95 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Gabriela
