Thanks to your generous donations we are able to keep expanding the number of families benefitting from solar lights. Even though the cost is very modest by western standards it is beyond the capability of families living on less than a dollar a day, as are most in Zeze.
Therefore, in conjunction with the local schools we are continuing to identify those families would most benefit from a solar light. Often these are families where women are struggling alone to bring up their children or where parents or children are disabled. In villages like Zeze, where there is no social security or safety net, this is a major challenge.
Having a solar light is a free, safe, light source which means families are not subject to the health risks and expense of kerosene and children can study and play after dark.
So please continue to help us light up Zeze!
