No Credit?  Optus SIMs supports Retirees

Heather* is an elderly volunteer and one of the many recipients of the Optus sim cards we acquired. Heather told us she was so happy to receive this sim card,(as she told us), she had been on a $15 pre-paid sim plan which she could just afford, then her service provider told her, her plan was going up to $45 a month, which she could not afford so she cancelled her plan and only had incoming calls.

Tell us how and to whom you distributed the goods in your community

We usually concentrate on younger children / families, but with this order we thought we would aim at the older people in the community as they are quite often overlooked. Many people assume that elderly people have worked so long and all the have enough money to afford everything they need but that is not always the case. Many older people have other things they need to spend their money on, e.g. medications. We see elderly clients who have four or five prescriptions at a time which they need to have filled at the chemist, this adds up to a lot of money out of their pensions.

Tell us how these goods helped your community, program or organisation

We helped the older generation with this order from Optus. With recipients been able to keep their existing phone numbers they were glad to be saving a year’s worth of phone bills. For many of the older generation their phones are the only communication to the outside world, especially if the live alone and are unable to venture out of their homes.
