Hey everyone, I’m putting this together to help out a friend of mine who lives off-grid and is facing her third Southern Highlands winter in a row without adequate heating (it can SNOW down that way sometimes). Like I said, she lives off grid, & it's an amazing set up. She has deer & kangaroos on her property every day, all sorts of birds, and the truth is she's ALLLLMOST self-sufficient. She's a postie in the community & she's got savings goals she's working toward etc, but I don't want her to do another winter in the frost while she works. She can't currently flick a switch and turn the heater on when it gets cold. She's got some small solar energy but no batteries, so power is limited, and right now she doesn’t have a reliable generator to get her through the colder months. So she's having ice cold showers every day & if she wants to be warm she's gotta sit outside by a fire. As winter sets in, that becomes unsafe, not just uncomfortable. It becomes genuinely difficult to manage on a day to day basis during the coldest parts of the year, and I just don't want her to have to go through that AGAIN this year. She's got adequate shelter, it's just ONE final puzzle piece that would make things ideal in terms of sporadic power as & when she needs it. I’m hoping to raise enough to get her that puzzle piece (a decent generator). With it, she could power things like her hot water system & heating in general, and just the basics when she needs it the most & her solar isn't being reliable. I asked her specifically what she needed to make things work & she said this generator** so I'm trying to make it happen. It’s one of those things that would make an immediate, real difference to her quality of life and peace of mind. If you can chip in, even a small amount helps more than you’d think. And if you can’t, sharing this around would mean a lot too. Really appreciate anyone who takes the time to read this or contributes. Thank you so much. ** https://www.bluettipower.com.au/products/bluetti-elite-400-portable-power-station?utm_source=fb&utm_medium=adcpc&utm_campaign=ELITE400_INT_PUR_COLD_%E5%85%B4%E8%B6%A3%E6%B5%81%E9%87%8F_%E4%BA%A7%E5%93%81%E9%A1%B5_AU_ZYT_260309&utm_content=P_SELF_Elite400_%E5%9F%BA%E7%A1%80%E5%8F%82%E6%95%B0%E5%B8%A6%E9%A6%96%E5%8F%91%E4%BB%B7_260309_promo%E6%8A%98%E6%89%A3%E7%A0%81on&ad_id=120239227357630192&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwQ4WyxleHRuA2FlbQEwAGFkaWQBqyzwtstNQHNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR7Jh7VQuDZqakfVRt9F-IzvigovcI3z63QjsY2EHmxO_ed_uh3QcVirxjM9zg_aem_B126o4PLzf-peDiP7URMoA&campaign_id=120239225725660192&utm_id=120239225725660192&utm_term=120239225813910192

This is my last $14 but it’s not really going to help solve my problems of homelessness so I’m gonna give it to someone it can help. Thanks Squid for doing this. My Gofundme has stalled but I can do this so I will. It’s the last of my own money but it’s better spent paying it forward to this cause than anything else I could do with it. Much love to all who have contributed & especially Squid for making this happen for someone in need. Anyone who can help me can contact Squid & I’m sure he will Dirrect you t
