Don't let Viral's family go through winter without heating
Viral is behind on heating bills after a reduction in hours and needs $105 to avoid a shut-off.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $105. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with 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.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $105 goes:
• Heating arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $5
Glad we found this place.

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Dortmund
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Lagos but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Keep going, Viral. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Madurai donated after I showed her your page. Love from Madurai
