Keep the heating on at Alka's home in Nashik
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Alka needs $100 before November.

The heating account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $100. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through summer without heating 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $100 goes:
• Heating arrears: $65
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $25
Glad we found this place.

Thanks for sharing this, Alka. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
hope it all works out. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Alka. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless!
you're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
Sending good thoughts, Alka. I hope things turn around soon. After 15 years in retail I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best.
