Don't let Megan's family go through winter without heating

Help Megan cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this winter.

The heating account is 4 months behind. Megan received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $750 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours. Megan called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $100 first, which isn't available. The household includes an elderly mother, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Megan is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Megan's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $750 goes: • Heating arrears: $500 • Reconnection and late fees: $80 • Down payment on a payment plan: $170 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

            Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Hồ Chí Minh City but we're thinking of you.
