Gas shut-off notice: help Brian pay $150

The gas account is 2 months behind. Brian received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $150 is paid. He had never been late before my partner leaving the household. Brian called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available. The household includes a disabled brother, and going through summer without gas isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. Brian is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Brian's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Gas arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $30 • Down payment on a payment plan: $55 Every share and every dollar helps.
