Gas shut-off notice: help Antônia pay $200

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $200. 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 $20 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the rainy season without gas 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Antônia's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $200 goes: • Gas arrears: $105 • Reconnection and late fees: $50 • Down payment on a payment plan: $45 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Antônia
