Keep the heating on at Isla's home in Bristol

Help Isla cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this summer.

The heating account is 4 months behind. Isla received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless $600 is paid. She had never been late before June's medical emergency. Isla called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $100 first, which isn't available. The household includes a disabled brother, and going through summer without heating isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. Isla is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $600 goes: • Gas arrears: $310 • Reconnection and late fees: $80 • Down payment on a payment plan: $210 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
