Water shut-off notice: help Levi pay $550

The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $550. I have never been late before losing my job in May. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $125 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through summer without water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at 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 Levi's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $550 goes: • Electricity arrears: $280 • Reconnection and late fees: $135 • Down payment on a payment plan: $135 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Levi
