Gas shut-off notice: help Gabriel pay $250

The gas account is 3 months behind. Gabriel received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless $250 is paid. He had never been late before March's medical emergency. Gabriel 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 two young children, and going through winter without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. Gabriel is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Gabriel's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $250 goes: • Utility arrears: $150 • Reconnection and late fees: $50 • Down payment on a payment plan: $50 I hope life is good to you.
