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

The heating account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $100. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through summer without heating isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. 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 $100 goes: • Electricity arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $20 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Christian
