Gas shut-off notice: help Cristina pay $150

Cristina is behind on gas bills after an unexpected car repair and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless I pay $150. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $30 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, 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 $150 goes: • Electricity arrears: $70 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $60 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
