Keep the electricity and water on at Yupin's home in Bang Khen
Yupin is behind on electricity and water bills after losing my job in June and needs $150 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 August unless I pay $150. I have never been late before losing my job in June.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $50 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the 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 Yupin's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Gas arrears: $75
• Reconnection and late fees: $45
• Down payment on a payment plan: $30
Thank you so much.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yupin.
Sure. The biggest one is gas arrears, $75. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
Sending love, Yupin. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 23 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Keep going, Yupin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Yupin. Looking forward to the next update. Take care
Wishing you peace, Yupin. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
