Desperately Need A New Furnace in Minnesota

It's Christmas Eve and my kid sister (I use this with her permission) is huddled under multiple blankets with her dog trying to stay warm - it is currently 8 below zero and it's not even 4:00 PM in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Her furnace went out a month ago and although she works full-time (paycheck-to-paycheck like so many of us) she is unable to come up with the $5,500 cost of a new furnace and is unable to get a loan. She's too embarrassed to ask for help. Through the kindness of family, she has been able to raise about $2,800, but of course, that isn't enough. Those of you who know me know that I'm not going to b.s. you. I've posted the actual quote from the furnace company.

UPDATE: Through the kindness and generosity of family and friends, we raised enough for the furnace - thank God and thank you all - but now she needs to have someone come out because all her pipes are frozen - the furnace is ordered and will be installed this week.
