Keep the water on at Hatice's home in Istanbul

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $200. I have never been late before June's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months without water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 $200 goes: • Utility arrears: $105 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $80 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Hatice
