CBG-WA local team is still providing assistance in Djomga for maintaining the solar lighting system. The project has a positive impact in the area and students are now able to work all time as desired. Because they have solar light in their classroom and also at home. We are convinced once again that classroom electrification in rural remote village is very important step to support children and mostly girls’ education. The photo above is an illustration.
Pamoussa, who is the Director of the Djomga School stated that” we were blessed to have light here with the solar energy system installed by CBG-WA. Djomga is among the poorest village in the Sahel, and because of the Jihadist threats there are huge concern with security, and most of the project do not want to come in the Sahel region. We thanks Give Water Give Life project for staying with us: This year my students have made major progress. Majority of my students have good grades which is very encouraging. Since the installation of the solar system, they can study at school anytime, and also once they get back home, there is a solar kit lighting system for them in their concession. The school classroom is opened all day to all students till 8pm.”
Upon multiple requests from several villages, CBG-WA has now more than 100 villages in our waiting list asking for solar lighting system in their classroom. So hopefully, we will be able to provide solar energy to so many other villagers with your help.
CBG-WA team is still committed to work in the Sahel region despite the terrorists’ threats. The region is facing insecurity and poverty. With your help, education for girls will be taking to another level.
Please your support is highly appreciated and needed.
