Keep the electricity on at Jade's home in Newcastle
Jade is behind on electricity bills after losing my job in August and needs $800 to avoid a shut-off.
🇦🇺 Australia688 views
The electricity account is 3 months behind. Jade received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $800 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in August.
Jade called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $80 first, which isn't available.
The household includes an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without electricity isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home.
Jade is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Jade's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $800 goes:
• Gas arrears: $470
• Reconnection and late fees: $85
• Down payment on a payment plan: $245
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Melbourne
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Birmingham.
Sending good thoughts. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Nevaeh. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Good luck, Nevaeh. Looking forward to the next update. After 14 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything
hope it all works out, Nevaeh. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Saint-Denis.
