Don't let Tammy's family go through the cold months without heating

A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Tammy needs $800 before November.

The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $800. 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 $100 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months 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 Tammy's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $800 goes: • Gas arrears: $450 • Reconnection and late fees: $180 • Down payment on a payment plan: $170 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Professional and kind

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

  • hang in there, Tammy. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. All the best

    • Take care, Tammy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings

      • best of luck, Tammy. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Wiesbaden so I could bring a meal.

        • Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Brooklyn this morning. Thinking of San Jose

          • Hope it all works out, Tammy. Shared this with my family.
