Keep the heating on at Afia's home in Accra
Help Afia cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $50. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $10 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at 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 Afia's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $50 goes:
• Utility arrears: $30
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $10
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Sending strength. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Duluth.
