Water shut-off notice: help Amaka pay $100
Help Amaka cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this summer.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in October.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through summer without water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
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 Amaka's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $70
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $5
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Good luck. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. All the best
is there anything that isn't money that would help Amaka?
Thank you. If you're in Badagry I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Wishing you peace, Amaka. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Bacolod.
Hope things get better soon, Amaka. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
Hope this works out for you. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Good luck, Amaka. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Mandaue
