Keep the electricity on at Craig's home in Fort Worth
Craig is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in October and needs $800 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $800. I have never been late before losing my job in October.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $110 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through the cold months without electricity 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $800 goes:
• Utility arrears: $580
• Reconnection and late fees: $80
• Down payment on a payment plan: $140
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Fort Worth.
