Help Eryn with Unexpected Utility Bill Surge

Hi, everyone! My name is Eryn (Not Erin), and I am a content creator, cosplayer, streamer, and writer from Pittsburgh, PA. Recently, we have been dealing with a heat wave (as most of the country has) to the point where our utilities have skyrocketed. On top of the nearly $900 increase in two of our bills, we were also informed that our autopay was never connected for our gas bill (and the company informed us this was set up multiple times when transferring service), bringing the total to nearly $1700. This amount, along with our other bills, is due in two weeks. Finding out this news has come as a complete shock, especially since I have to place my other creative projects and potentially conventions on hold (one of which is Anime NYC and I was invited for content creation).

I decided to set the goal for $2500 just in case we are met with any other surprises (which happens way too often with these companies), but any contribution would be greatly appreciated. Even if you are unable to contribute, sharing this fundraiser goes a long way. Thank you guys so much for your time.
