Don't let Cristian's family go through winter without heating
Help Cristian cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this winter.

The heating account is 4 months behind. Cristian received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $600 is paid. He had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Cristian called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $95 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
Cristian is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Cristian's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $600 goes:
• Utility arrears: $360
• Reconnection and late fees: $60
• Down payment on a payment plan: $180
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Hope things get better soon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We're a small family in Hanoi but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. Thinking of Seville
Thanks for sharing this, Sebastián. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
Hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Warangal
