Heating shut-off notice: help Eliana pay $850
Help Eliana cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this winter.
🇺🇸 United States926 views
The heating account is 4 months behind. Eliana received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless $850 is paid. She had never been late before my partner leaving the household.
Eliana called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $105 first, which isn't available.
The household includes three children under ten, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Eliana is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Eliana's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $850 goes:
• Heating arrears: $520
• Reconnection and late fees: $220
• Down payment on a payment plan: $110
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Willow
Update from Los Angeles: the plan for reconnection and late fees is now scheduled. We're at 4% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($82 in total) I made the first payment toward reconnection and late fees. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
We're at 14% thanks to 3 of you. I made the first payment toward down payment on a payment plan. More news soon.

Thanks for sharing this, Willow. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Rooting for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Thinking of you, Willow. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better
Thanks for sharing this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 38 people at work. All the best.
