Don't let Adriana's family go through summer without gas
Adriana is behind on gas bills after my partner leaving the household and needs $850 to avoid a shut-off.
🇺🇸 United States1,497 views
The gas account is 2 months behind. Adriana received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on June unless $850 is paid. She had never been late before my partner leaving the household.
Adriana called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $185 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a disabled brother, and going through summer without gas isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Adriana is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Adriana's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $850 goes:
• Water arrears: $460
• Reconnection and late fees: $125
• Down payment on a payment plan: $265
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Gdańsk.
