Keep the gas on at Lina's home in Leeds
Lina is behind on gas bills after an unexpected car repair and needs $450 to avoid a shut-off.

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $450. 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 $70 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through the cold months without gas 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 Lina's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $450 goes:
• Utility arrears: $280
• Reconnection and late fees: $105
• Down payment on a payment plan: $65
With deep gratitude,
Lina

thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
