Application Details

High gas bill-temporary hardship | Cost to fully fund this application: 1,521.00 Modest Needs Points

The figure above includes the cost of fulfillment.

I am a wife and mother of three children and one grandson. I have Lupus and receive SSDI payments every month. My husband works three jobs, six days a week. We got behind in our gas bill because our household increased from 4 to 6 people about six months ago, which increased hot water and cooking gas and decreased petty cash.

My oldest daughter has received notification of a job to start in June to help pay for her own miscellaneous needs. All of our other bills are paid on time each month. My doctor was able to get a temporary medical emergency to avoid shut off of my service.

Once the catch up amount is paid we will be able to afford the payment plan amount. I would like to thank all contributors who can help me and my family get back on track with our gas bill. Even if you can't help me...I know you'll help SOMEONE. This is one of the best philanthropy ideas ever.
