Water shut-off notice: help Lucas pay $200
Lucas is behind on water bills after losing my job in September and needs $200 to avoid a shut-off.

The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $200. I have never been late before losing my job in September.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $60 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, 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 Lucas's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Gas arrears: $130
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
