The water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless I pay $850. I have never been late before November's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $190 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, 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 Parker's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $850 goes:
• Water arrears: $570
• Reconnection and late fees: $165
• Down payment on a payment plan: $115
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Sydney so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Corpus Christi.
Hang in there, Parker. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't give up.
thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Cape Town this morning. Take care.
