Don't let Paresh's family go through the cold months without gas
Paresh is behind on gas bills after an unexpected car repair and needs $100 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $100. 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 $20 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the 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 Paresh's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $35
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45

Sending good thoughts, Paresh. Hope this works out for you. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Paresh
Electricity arrears is $35 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Stay strong. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Wudil this morning. Greetings from Wudil!
Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
Keep going, Paresh. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Love from Jakarta.
sending love, Paresh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mysuru
