Keep the electricity and water on at Nahid's home in Gazipur
A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Nahid needs $100 before March.
🇧🇩 Gazipur, Dhaka, Bangladesh671 views
The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. Nahid received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before losing my job in December.
Nahid called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through summer without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
Nahid is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $100 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $55
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $35
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

wishing you the best, Karim. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Munich this morning!
Wishing you the best, Karim. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Chandler.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in San Jose donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Gazipur!
Sending good thoughts, Karim. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 10 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Liverpool.
Wishing you the best. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Rohini so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Sending strength, Karim. Hope this works out for you.
