Keep the electricity and water on at Kylie's home in El Paso

A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Kylie needs $700 before February.

The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless I pay $700. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. 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 a disabled brother, and going through summer 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 Kylie's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $700 goes: • Electricity arrears: $340 • Reconnection and late fees: $180 • Down payment on a payment plan: $180 Thanks for being kind about this.

  2. We're at 42% thanks to 2 of you. we've started the first stage. More news soon.

  3. We're at 36% thanks to 1 of you. I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

    I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Madrid this morning!
