Keep the electricity and water on at Waylon's home in Pittsburgh

The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. Waylon received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless $550 is paid. He had never been late before losing my job in August. Waylon called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $105 first, which isn't available. The household includes a newborn, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. Waylon 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 $550 goes: • Electricity arrears: $240 • Reconnection and late fees: $110 • Down payment on a payment plan: $200 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
