Don't let Pooja's family go through winter without heating
Pooja is behind on heating bills after May's medical emergency and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The heating account is 4 months behind. Pooja received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $150 is paid. She had never been late before May's medical emergency.
Pooja called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $30 first, which isn't available.
The household includes an elderly mother, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
Pooja is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $150 goes:
• Gas arrears: $75
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Pooja?
Thank you. If you're in Pune I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Jakarta Barat.
Wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
Rooting for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Aberdeen.
this could happen to any of us!
