Keep the electricity and water on at Habib's home in Saket
Habib is behind on electricity and water bills after January's medical emergency and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $100. I have never been late before January's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, 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.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $100 goes:
• Utility arrears: $40
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $50
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
