Changing life by supporting a solar lamp

Most of the areas of the Sundarbans coastal region of Bangladesh are lacked of electricity. Sundarbans coastal communities have to bow down to the gloominess of night due to lack of electricity. Bangladesh Environment and Development Society (BEDS) is an environmental development organization which has been trying to reduce electricity depravity of the coastal people by supporting them solar lamps since 2014.

The organization is trying to raise fund from the GlobalGiving for this purpose. So far, we have raised 910 $ from fourteen donors and expect to draw the donors kind attention and get the total amount 15000 $ for this project. It is our expectation that by 2030 we will be able to raise the total fund for this project.

We are sharing the update situation of our fundraising with the local community regularly.  The villagers believe it that one day they will get solar lamps by the support of kind hearted people.

This is our heartiest request to the donors, please come forward and reduce the sufferings of those poor coastal people through donating for solar lights.

Major parts of the Sundarbans coastal region of Bangladesh are deprived of electricity. Sundarbans coastal communities have to bow down to the gloominess of night due to lack of electricity. Bangladesh Environment and Development Society (BEDS) is an environmental development organization which has been trying to reduce the sufferings of the coastal people by supporting solar lamps since 2014 because promoting renewable energy is one of the focal sectors of the organization. BEDS has already supported 3000 coastal families by giving solar lamp, solar home system, solar generator and solar battery. In addition three solar stations have been installed for community’s electricity facility.

The organization is trying to raise fund from the donors for this purpose. So far we have raised 900$ from thirteen donors and expect to draw the donors kind attention and get the total amount 12987$ for this project. It is our expectation that by 2030 we will be able to raise the total fund for this project. BEDS is also negotiating with other potential donors like Korea Green Foundation (KGF) to get support so that coastal students may get the alternative electricity to continue their study. Hopefully KGF will assist us for the benefits of few students. 

We have shared this news with the local community that thirteen respectable donors have already supported us. The villagers believe it that one day they will get solar lamps by the support of kind hearted people, although they are still fighting for purchasing kerosene for their lighting purpose. This is our earnest request to the donors, please come forward and reduce the sufferings of those poor coastal people through donating for solar lights.
