l have created this page in support of Teena Keys (Higgins)
As she strives to keep her dependents Unit/Cabin.
Our intent is to relieve the significant financial burden that has so quickly been placed upon her from Government Protocol She has been given 60 Days to apply for a permit and to have the cabin up-to compliance
Teena left a violent marriage with a police escort in 2019 moved back to her home town Geelong only for Covid to hit and destroy her growing Housekeeping business at the same time the rental property she had secured on a 12 month lease (30+ people had applied for) The owners needed to move back into
Teena then applied for 60+ properties unsuccessfully She was now homeless
She was seen as a High risk renter - Single Woman Self Employed her business diminishing not registered for GST she was not entitled to the small business relief packages handed out
Her only option was now to couch surf for the next several years while she tried building her business clientele in Geelong
During this period she battled 2 bouts of pneumonia and chest surgery to remove a precancerous growth
Teena finally saved a minimum amount of money to get a small loan with
lots of thought to her future stability with no chance of securing a long term (violent free) rental property she decided to purchase a very old site cabin
that she could finally call home and finally feel safe and secure
Over the last few weeks Teena has needed to use food relief support around Geelong to get by
She never thought her life would take the turn it has with thousands of dollars and trades required to get Her little cabin approved so after 5 years she could finally feel grounded She feels this hard slog is about to be pulled out from underneath her
Any help or trades service would be life changing
