You have been an important source of support for Mayan Power and Light. We are a small, grassrooots organization, so donations from individuals like you covers up to 50% of our projects! We literately couldn't share the solar solution in Guatemala without you!

In 2018, we are all set up to train 40 rural women across Guatemala in microbusiness skills, personal empowerment, and solar power so they can spread the word about solar power to an additional 15,000 people in schools, community centers and municipal governments. These solar women help make clean energy available to all.

Next month we continue teaching 32 at-risk teenageers advanced solar tech training with an introduction to sales, so they can learn how to be solar installers or solar salespeople!  

2018 is our big opportunity amplify our work to create to 40 womens solar microbusinesses! We need $18,000 to make sure the program begins next year. Will you help us meet our mark?
