Heating shut-off notice: help Sachin pay $105

Sachin is behind on heating bills after losing my job in April and needs $105 to avoid a shut-off.

The heating account is 2 months behind. Sachin received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless $105 is paid. He had never been late before losing my job in April. Sachin called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $30 first, which isn't available. The household includes three children under ten, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. Sachin is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $105 goes: • Utility arrears: $85 • Reconnection and late fees: $15 • Down payment on a payment plan: $5 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • Best of luck, Manisha. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.

    • it takes guts to ask. Well done. After 23 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Thane.
