Don't let Fábio's family go through the cold months without gas

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless I pay $250. I have never been late before a reduction in hours. 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 three children under ten, and going through the cold months 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Fábio's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $250 goes: • Utility arrears: $110 • Reconnection and late fees: $50 • Down payment on a payment plan: $90 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
