Mekelle
The water account is 2 months behind. Mulu 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. Mulu called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available. The household includes two young children, and going through the cold months without water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. Mulu is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Mulu's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Heating arrears: $50 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Thanks for reading all this. - Robel
