Keep the heating on at Ivy's home in Sydney

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

The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $600. 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 $180 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through summer without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at 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 $600 goes: • Heating arrears: $280 • Reconnection and late fees: $115 • Down payment on a payment plan: $205 If you're reading this, thank you. - Ivy
