Don't let Naresh's family go through summer without gas

Naresh is behind on gas bills after my partner leaving the household and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $150. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have. I live with two young children, and going through summer without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. 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 $150 goes: • Gas arrears: $80 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $55 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

    • You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

      • hope you get there. Greetings from Bekasi.
