Keep the electricity and water on at Sayali's home in Madurai

The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $100. 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 $10 first, which I don't have. I live with two young children, 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 Sayali's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $45 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
