Most of the Sundarbans coastal area is non-electrified and coastal communities living in dark at night due to lack of electricity and increased kerosene price. Due to their poverty, parents can hardly purchase Kerosene for their children’s education purpose. As a result, school students of the coastal areas can’t continue their study at night for lack of electricity.
Impact:
BEDS has already supported more than 3000 coastal families and school going students by giving solar lamp, solar home system, solar generator and solar battery. In addition five solar stations have been installed for community’s electricity facility. Local government declared Banisanta union as a solar union.
Feedbacks from the beneficiaries:
A supported school going children express his feelings ‘‘I am so happy to continue my study at night by using solar light. In past I cannot continue my study because my parents couldn’t afford to buy kerosene for my education purpose. Now my academic result is highly improved. Some of my school friends are going to drop out from schools as they can’t study at night for increased price of kerosene. I request honorable donors to help them to continue study by giving solar lights. ’’
