Water shut-off notice: help Alexandra pay $650
A disconnection notice for water arrived and Alexandra needs $650 before May.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $650. I have never been late before losing my job in March.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $75 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through winter without water isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Alexandra's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $650 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $460
• Reconnection and late fees: $70
• Down payment on a payment plan: $120
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
