Keep the electricity on at Isaac's home in Newport

The electricity account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $700. I have never been late before losing my job in September. 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 three children under ten, and going through the cold months without electricity 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 Isaac's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $700 goes: • Heating arrears: $340 • Reconnection and late fees: $145 • Down payment on a payment plan: $215 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
