Water shut-off notice: help David pay $750
Help David cover an overdue water bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.
🇺🇸 Peoria, Illinois, United States633 views
The water account is 3 months behind. David received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless $750 is paid. He had never been late before March's medical emergency.
David called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $60 first, which isn't available.
The household includes three children under ten, and going through the cold months without water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
David is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in David's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $750 goes:
• Water arrears: $350
• Reconnection and late fees: $185
• Down payment on a payment plan: $215
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

keep going, Ruth. This could happen to any of us

Praying for you, Ruth. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Móstoles so I could bring a meal. Love from Kota
Good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best
