Kuyere! means "Let there be light!" in Chichewa, the language of Malawi
Our project is dedicated to the idea of affordably and sustain-ably providing solar electricity to the poorest rural households in Africa over the next 10 to 20 years.We have now organized a system where:
With this system, we can get a small custom-installed, wired solar electric system with lights in every room and a fast cell phone charger to a family of five in rural Africa for a donor cost of only $20! This system saves that family about $5/month in battery and cell phone charging costs for 5 to 10 years, meaning that a $20 donation creates $300 to $600 of benefits over the next decade for a household where people live off of less than $2/day. We think that this 15X to 30X leveraging of donor impact in the benefit of low-income households is better than any other organization working in low-income rural Africa.
The following link allows you provide a monthly donation that goes to individual families, some of whom need a little help to buy their solar system. Every 2-3 months will be provide you the pictures and names of the specific families that benefit from your donation by getting solar electricity:
We calculate that if we can get solar to enough people fast enough, then we could potentially save more than 1 million lives: read about the details HERE
