Help Waleed cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $500. I have never been late before losing my job in August.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $125 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, 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 Waleed's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $500 goes:
• Utility arrears: $240
• Reconnection and late fees: $70
• Down payment on a payment plan: $190
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Rooting for you, Waleed. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. After 18 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Lagos
Hang in there, Waleed. Your post was clear and honest!
Hope it all works out, Waleed. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 39 people at work.
