Keep the heating on at Caleb's home in Houston
Caleb is behind on heating bills after my partner leaving the household and needs $700 to avoid a shut-off.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless I pay $700. 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 $80 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
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 $700 goes:
• Water arrears: $450
• Reconnection and late fees: $120
• Down payment on a payment plan: $130
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you, Caleb. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless
Hope it all works out. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Hang in there, Caleb. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless
