Major portions of the Sundarbans coastal region of Bangladesh are lacked of electricity. Due to 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 been trying to reduce the sufferings of the coastal people by supporting solar lamps. After the distribution, education of coastal areas school students’ has improved. More than three thousand coastal families of the Sundarbans coastal region union are now using renewable energy.
Feedbacks from the beneficiaries:
A supported school going children’s Father expressed his feelings ‘‘One solar lamp is now changing my son Roy’s future. In past my son Roy can’t study at night, now my son Roy’s academic result is better than before. Some of my son Roy’s 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. ’’
We would like to thank all our donors for being so kind to us and we hope that our kind hearted donors will spread out their helping hands for the betterment of the underprivileged coastal students by starting monthly recurring donations; https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/change-life-through-supporting-a-solar-lamp?show=recurring
