Keep the gas on at Anthony's home in New York

A disconnection notice for gas arrived and Anthony needs $850 before September.

The gas account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $850. I have never been late before losing my job in May. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $135 first, which I don't have. I live with two young children, and going through the rainy season without gas isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 Anthony's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $850 goes: • Electricity arrears: $550 • Reconnection and late fees: $110 • Down payment on a payment plan: $190 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Anthony

    Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of New York!

      Keep going, Anthony. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
