Keep the heating on at Shirin's home in Gazipur
Help Shirin cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.
🇧🇩 Bangladesh714 views
The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $105. 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 $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
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 Shirin's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $105 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $80
• Reconnection and late fees: $20
• Down payment on a payment plan: $5
With deep gratitude,
Shirin

Thank you all. We're at 71% now ($75). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for down payment on a payment plan is now scheduled.
38% there. I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. Thank you.
Small update. $40 so far, the plan for down payment on a payment plan is now scheduled.
