Don't let Zoe's family go through summer without gas
Zoe is behind on gas bills after August's medical emergency and needs $600 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $600. I have never been late before August's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $120 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through summer without gas 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $600 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $290
• Reconnection and late fees: $105
• Down payment on a payment plan: $205
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

- Helped when no one else could
I was skeptical at first, but this person proved to be reliable and genuinely interested in helping. Their response time was incredible and their solutions were practical.
- Amazing support system
I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

Wishing you the best, Zoe. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Swansea
Sending good thoughts, Zoe. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We're a small family in San Francisco but we're thinking of you.

Good luck, Zoe. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

Praying for you, Zoe. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
