Keep the electricity and water on at Katharina's home in Frankfurt
Katharina is behind on electricity and water bills after a reduction in hours and needs $500 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 January unless I pay $500. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $115 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through the rainy season without electricity and water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
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 Katharina's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $500 goes:
• Heating arrears: $200
• Reconnection and late fees: $165
• Down payment on a payment plan: $135
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Katharina. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
So sorry you're going through this, Katharina. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
Best of luck, Katharina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Surrey donated after I showed her your page
