Ideas To Offer Help And Get Help During This Challenging Time
Ways to stay connected, support small businesses, and more.
In Australia, it wasn’t long ago we were battling fires. Now, like the rest of the world, we’re tackling the virus. Once again it seems like we’re being tested. Once again we are called to show the power of our community. And our communities here — and all over the world are stepping up.
I’ve experienced wonderful practical support from businesses I support. For instance, US personal finance advisor, Ramit Sethi offered a 2-month grace period on course payments. This is incredibly helpful for me as the Aussie dollar has floored and homeschooling my child has affected how much I work.
Another unexpected yet helpful instance of generosity came from my telecom company, Amazysim. They offered an unbelievable 20GB of data for free. This is so helpful as I run a business from home and connection has been sketchy online lately.
