Keep the heating on at Shazia's home in Faisalabad
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Shazia needs $100 before November.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November 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 $25 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through winter 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 $100 goes:
• Water arrears: $55
• Reconnection and late fees: $15
• Down payment on a payment plan: $30
Thank you for reading my story.

Wanted to say thank you properly. 110% funded and I made the first payment toward down payment on a payment plan.

I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

Keep going, Shazia. Hope you get there. All the best
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Shazia
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. water arrears is the biggest at $55. It helps to be asked.
Praying for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 29 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Praying for you, Shazia. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. All the best!
