Keep the water on at Maurício's home in Salvador
A disconnection notice for water arrived and Maurício needs $200 before December.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $200. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $35 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the cold months without water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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: $110
• Reconnection and late fees: $30
• Down payment on a payment plan: $60
Thanks for reading all this.

Keep going, Maurício. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Kikuyu.
