The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $150. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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 $150 goes:
• Utility arrears: $70
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $55
If you're reading this, thank you.

Updates from Huy
Good news. Because of your gifts ($71 in total) I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

thinking of you and your family, Huy. I hope things turn around soon!
Hope things get better soon, Huy. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
You're not alone. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
Stay strong. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best!
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Ribeirão Preto.
