Keep the heating on at Danielle's home in Cincinnati
Help Danielle 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 January unless I pay $750. 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 $80 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the rainy season 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 $750 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $280
• Reconnection and late fees: $175
• Down payment on a payment plan: $295
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you peace, Danielle. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Cincinnati.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about electricity arrears, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Danielle
Sure. The biggest one is electricity arrears, $280. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Good question.

Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Caruaru
shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Best of luck, Danielle. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
You're not alone, Danielle. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
hang in there, Danielle. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!
