Keep the heating on at Genet's home in Hawassa
Help Genet cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this winter.

The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $100. I have never been late before July's medical emergency.
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 a newborn, and going through winter 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $100 goes:
• Utility arrears: $60
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $25
I hope life is good to you.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Genet
Utility arrears is $60 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.
stay strong, Genet. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Jakarta
Good luck. This could happen to any of us. Love from Khulna.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Genet?
Thank you. If you're in Hawassa I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Wishing you the best. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 33 people at work.
Sending good thoughts, Genet. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
Hope it all works out, Genet. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Riverside.
