Keep the gas on at Priya's home in Sandton

A disconnection notice for gas arrived and Priya needs $150 before April.

The gas account is 3 months behind. Priya received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless $150 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours. Priya called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available. The household includes an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home. Priya is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Priya's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Water arrears: $60 • Reconnection and late fees: $40 • Down payment on a payment plan: $50 With deep gratitude, Yusuf
