Don't let Odhiambo's family go through the rainy season without heating
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Odhiambo needs $150 before August.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $150. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without heating 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $150 goes:
• Gas arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
Thanks for reading all this.

So sorry you're going through this, Odhiambo. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Mansoura.
praying for you, Odhiambo. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Best of luck, Odhiambo. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Please keep us posted.
