Keep the electricity on at Nabirye's home in Kinondoni
Nabirye is behind on electricity bills after September's medical emergency and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 2 months behind. Nabirye received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before September's medical emergency.
Nabirye called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which isn't available.
The household includes two young children, and going through summer without electricity isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Nabirye is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Nabirye's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Utility arrears: $35
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $50
Thanks for being kind about this.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Saket.
thinking of you and your family, Caroline. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Rooting for you, Caroline. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Manchester donated after I showed her your page
hang in there, Caroline. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Kinondoni.
