Greenlight Energy Steps Up to Pay the November BELCO Bills of 10 Seniors

Through its “Powering Our Seniors” campaign, Greenlight invites the community to nominate seniors for a raffle that will cover up to $1,000 of their November BELCO bill, proving that there’s always something that can be done.

As electricity rate hikes continue, many Bermudians, especially seniors on fixed incomes, are feeling the strain. While BELCO has pointed to global inflation and infrastructure costs as contributing factors, Greenlight Energy is focusing on compassion.

“We started this campaign because too many Bermudians need immediate relief,” said Cameron Smith, Co-Founder & Managing Director of Greenlight Energy. “Greenlight was built to help people take control of their energy, but that mission has always been bigger than solar. At the end of the day, it’s about neighbors helping neighbors.”

How to Enter

Submissions are now open for two weeks (November 10th – 24th). Seniors, or family and friends submitting on their behalf, can apply by emailing info@greenlightenergy.bm with:

Name of the senior
Age (65+)
Best contact email and/or phone number
A short story answering: “What are your thoughts on the current situation, and how has it affected you?”

At the close of the submission period, all eligible entries will be entered into a raffle draw, where 10 seniors will be selected to have their November BELCO bill (up to $1,000) paid in full.

“We’re looking to lead by example,” said Cameron Smith. “We’re showing that when you have the means to help, you should. Hopefully, we can inspire others, including BELCO, to do the same.”
