Don't let Andrew's family go through the cold months without gas
Help Andrew cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.
🇨🇦 Canada1,829 views
The gas account is 3 months behind. Andrew received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $1,100 is paid. He had never been late before my partner leaving the household.
Andrew called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $140 first, which isn't available.
The household includes two young children, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
Andrew is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $620
• Reconnection and late fees: $170
• Down payment on a payment plan: $310
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together
Sending strength, Donna. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Ottawa.
Thank you. If you're in Ottawa I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Ottawa.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Manila so I could bring a meal.
Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
