We are deeply touched by Jude Kuring's generous decision to leave a legacy gift in her will to Solar Citizens.


Iconic Australian actress Jude Kuring aka "Noelle Bourke" from Prisoner 

Jude, a true environmental champion, provocateur and change agent, shares our vision and wants to see it thrive.

She wants to help create a safer, kinder Australia, where the cost of living savings of clean energy are shared amongst all Australians, and where we have collectively responded to the challenge of climate change.

That's why Jude is supporting Solar Citizens to continue our crucial work. Thank you Jude.
