Story
These 2 children, a 10 y/o and a 7 y/o, have been back in their home, with their dad, for the last 6 months. This family has had to overcome a lot to get to where they are now. However, the dad is behind on his utility bill and owes approximately $1200. City Utilities has given him until May 30th to pay the bill off. If utilities in the home were to be shut off, the children would have to be removed from their home again.
This dad has been paying $300-400 per month to keep the utilities on. He has been unable to work for over a year due to medical issues, and he is working on his disability case right now to try to get more income. I understand $1200 is a lot to ask for, but they will accept any amount of help they can get. This dad has done everything he can for his children, and he just needs some help to get back on his feet.
