Heating shut-off notice: help Michael pay $750
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Michael needs $750 before October.

The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $750. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $195 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Michael's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $750 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $410
• Reconnection and late fees: $200
• Down payment on a payment plan: $140
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
