Gas shut-off notice: help Arthur pay $200
Help Arthur cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this winter.
🇧🇷 Brazil1,236 views
The gas account is 2 months behind. Arthur received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $200 is paid. He had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Arthur called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $50 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a disabled brother, and going through winter without gas isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Arthur is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Arthur's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $200 goes:
• Utility arrears: $105
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $75
Thank you so much.

You're not alone, Lúcia. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Salvador.
Hang in there, Lúcia. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Praying for you, Lúcia. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better.
Good luck, Lúcia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Mangaluru.
Praying for you, Lúcia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless

Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. After 6 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
