Don't let Aileen's family go through the rainy season without gas

A disconnection notice for gas arrived and Aileen needs $150 before July.

The gas account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $150. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through the rainy season without gas 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $150 goes: โ€ข Heating arrears: $100 โ€ข Reconnection and late fees: $15 โ€ข Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Thanks for being kind about this. - Aileen
