Keep the water on at Maria's home in Latina
A disconnection notice for water arrived and Maria needs $750 before November.
🇮🇹 Latina, Lazio, Italy1,508 views
The water account is 4 months behind. Maria received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $750 is paid. She had never been late before my partner leaving the household.
Maria called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $95 first, which isn't available.
The household includes three children under ten, and going through summer without water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
Maria is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Maria's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $750 goes:
• Utility arrears: $390
• Reconnection and late fees: $140
• Down payment on a payment plan: $220
Thank you so much.

shared it with a few friends. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Wrocław
Praying for you, Ugo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better.
You're not alone, Ugo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Hang in there, Ugo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 16 people at work
Rooting for you, Ugo. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Houston so I could bring a meal. Take care.
