The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $350. I have never been late before August's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $80 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through summer without heating 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 Ana's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $350 goes: • Utility arrears: $195 • Reconnection and late fees: $45 • Down payment on a payment plan: $110 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 54% funded and I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts.

  2. Thank you all. We're at 56% now ($198). I'm honestly stunned. we've started the first stage.

  3. 89% there. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Thank you.
