Don't let Patrick's family go through the rainy season without heating

A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Patrick needs $650 before November.

The heating account is 2 months behind. Patrick received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $650 is paid. He had never been late before my partner leaving the household. Patrick called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $195 first, which isn't available. The household includes a newborn, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home. Patrick is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Patrick's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $650 goes: • Heating arrears: $450 • Reconnection and late fees: $110 • Down payment on a payment plan: $90 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - David

  • Sending love, David. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of San Francisco.

    • So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 11 years in accounting I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.

      • Hope it all works out, David. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.

        • Praying for you, David. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

          • So sorry you're going through this, David. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
