Keep the water on at Rachel's home in Nashville

Help Rachel cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.

The water account is 2 months behind. Rachel received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $700 is paid. She had never been late before my partner leaving the household. Rachel called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $100 first, which isn't available. The household includes three children under ten, 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. Rachel is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $700 goes: • Gas arrears: $320 • Reconnection and late fees: $155 • Down payment on a payment plan: $225 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Beau

    Hope you get there. My neighbor in Taguig donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rachel

      • Beau EllisOwnerAnswer

        Sure. The biggest one is gas arrears, $320. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.

    • Bridget Cunningham

      Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

      • Derek M. Taylor

        Praying for you, Beau. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon

        • Samir Amir Amin

          Hope it all works out, Beau. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best

          • Okan Barış Güler

            You're not alone, Beau. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Edinburgh so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Angeles.

              This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Moscow this morning. Take care.
