Keep the electricity and water on at Gabriella's home in Rome

Help Gabriella cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. Gabriella received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $400 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in June. Gabriella called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $130 first, which isn't available. The household includes a disabled brother, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Gabriella is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Gabriella's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $400 goes: • Utility arrears: $180 • Reconnection and late fees: $90 • Down payment on a payment plan: $130 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • Praying for you, Raffaele. Shared this with my family. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.

    • A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Lahore

      • Hang in there. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

        • keep going, Raffaele. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My husband and I read this together. All the best.

                • take care, Raffaele. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

                  • Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Rome.
