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

The heating account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $150. I have never been late before a reduction in hours.
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 winter 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 Sudhakar's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $150 goes:
• Water arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $55
Glad we found this place.

Hope things get better soon, Sudhakar. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Rooting for you, Sudhakar. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up. All the best
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sudhakar.
Sure. The biggest one is water arrears, $85. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Thanks for sharing this, Sudhakar. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from São Paulo.
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Durgapur.
Thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless!
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Sudhakar?
Sending love, Sudhakar. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Blessings
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal.
hang in there, Sudhakar. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope July is when things finally get easier
you're not alone, Sudhakar. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

Thanks for sharing this, Sudhakar. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Mombasa donated after I showed her your page.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in West Bengal. I'll ask around and let you know!
Hope things get better soon, Sudhakar. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together.

So sorry you're going through this, Sudhakar. Hope this works out for you. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
