Water shut-off notice: help Gopal pay $100

The water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in July. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have. I live with 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. 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 Gopal's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Utility arrears: $50 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Thanks for reading all this. - Gopal
