Introduction
Whilst the rest of the world is preparing for a time driven by renewable energy, Rural communities across Africa lack the means to be able to take proactive steps to prepare for climate change. Our project activities and services vary greatly but working with leading scientists and entrepreneurs we are working on a solar system that is light, easy to install and will power a whole business or home in a township..
Report
By giving our local partners access to renewable energy we are opening doors for children to learn no matter the hour; have electricity to power computers, sewing machines and other material for vocational training; communicate in case of need and pump water into their homes to save time collecting. Renewable energy is a core building block for further development and provides institutions with the opportunity to be self-sustainable. We have managed to raise $337 so far but still have a long way to go to reach our goal.
