Don't let Anita's family go through summer without heating

Anita is behind on heating bills after losing my job in January and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The heating account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in January. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which I don't have. I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer without heating 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 Anita's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: • Gas arrears: $50 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
