Keep the heating on at Dola's home in Dhaka
Help Dola cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh929 views
The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $100. 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 $20 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, 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 Dola's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Utility arrears: $30
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

We're at 45% thanks to 1 of you. I made the first payment toward utility arrears. More news soon.

Thinking of you and your family, Dola. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
Best of luck. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor in Alcalá de Henares donated after I showed her your page.
rooting for you, Dola. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Corpus Christi so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Nagpur but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Nagpur
Stay strong, Dola. Shared this with my family. Love from Coyoacán
