The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $150. I have never been late before September's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Irene's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Gas arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
I hope life is good to you.

Stay strong, Irene. I hope things turn around soon. Take care.
Sending strength, Irene. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Savar
So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
