Lights for Learning

Imagine kids being burned accidentally by kerosene lamps in an african home. That is what is happening all across Africa in homes where they use kerosene lamps for lighting.
Along came “Lights for Learning” , a non-profit charitable group that put together a solar powered lighting kit using donated solar panels from ICP and other components to try to help homes move away from expensive and dangerous kerosene lamps.
You can even see one being installed on an african home here . Or see the panel on a thatched roof!
With over 3billion people on earth having no running electricity, imagine a world in which each home generated its own. Imagine the contribution to themselves and to the rest of the world that people empowered through light can make?
An old tanzanian saying goes like this: “I pointed out to you the stars (the moon) and all you saw was the tip of my finger.”
If you know of other organizations engaged in such good work, please let me know how we can support them. And PLEASE see beyond the tip of the finger and help people like Lights for Learning empower those without power. Through empowerment, we all win.
Thanks
