Keep the gas on at Isuru's home in Colombo
Isuru is behind on gas bills after an unexpected car repair and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $150. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $150 goes:
• Heating arrears: $100
• Reconnection and late fees: $30
• Down payment on a payment plan: $20
Thank you for reading my story.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Isuru
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. heating arrears comes first ($100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
Good luck, Isuru. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together
