Don't let Nova's family go through the cold months without gas
Help Nova cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless I pay $800. 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 $70 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
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 Nova's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $800 goes:
• Utility arrears: $420
• Reconnection and late fees: $145
• Down payment on a payment plan: $235
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. After 21 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything
You're not alone. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Kikuyu
Praying for you, Nova. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Athens.
Best of luck, Nova. This could happen to any of us. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from São Paulo.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Sydney.
