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

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

The heating account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $1,000. 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 $190 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through winter without heating 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Parker's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $1,000 goes: • Gas arrears: $690 • Reconnection and late fees: $95 • Down payment on a payment plan: $215 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

      Shared this with my family. After 16 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything

        Sending strength, Parker. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
