Help Travis cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $700. 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 $140 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through the rainy season 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 $700 goes: • Utility arrears: $390 • Reconnection and late fees: $120 • Down payment on a payment plan: $190 Thanks for reading all this.

    Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out!

    • Samina Mahnoor Abbasi

      Wishing you peace, Travis. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

      • Mangesh A. Shinde

        Hope it all works out, Travis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
