Don't let Mariana's family go through the cold months without heating

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $850. 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 $110 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through the cold months 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 Mariana's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $850 goes: • Gas arrears: $540 • Reconnection and late fees: $165 • Down payment on a payment plan: $145 I hope life is good to you.
