Light For Ugandan Health Clinics
Light for All is a group of six high school students from Los Gatos High. The team consists of Jack Fulkerth, Nathan Townsend, Preston Morley, Saya Alvares, Julia Brisbee, and Avery Murphy. Almost 600 million people in Africa live without one of the most basic needs, electricity. Due to the lack of electricity, communities result to dirty and overpriced kerosene lamps which risk many health concerns. Our main goal is to prevent usage of these harmful lamps, and result in a safer alternative of solar powered electricity. Keeping this goal in mind, and hopes of bettering communities in the best way we can, we have decided to partner with Let there be Light International with the goal of lighting up multiple health clinics in Uganda.
In Africa, millions of people live without safe lighting at home, in their schools, at health care centers, or along their roads. Millions of people shut down their business after dark, go to sleep in darkness, get up in darkness, and take care of loved ones in darkness, trying (like us all) to keep their families safe and healthy. All without electricity. These communities have access to something more reliable and renewable than an electric grid: the sun. And although solar won’t solve all the world’s problems, it’s a powerful step towards safer, healthier, more productive lives for many.
Solar lights are changing thousands of lives – one person, one household, one community at a time. We know this because we have solar-electrified 60 off-grid health clinics using solar power and donated 22,500 solar lights to vulnerable families in one or more of our M.O.D.E.S. (Mothers, Orphans, Persons Living with a Disability, Elders, Students) We help children to continue their studies at night. We’ve enabled health care centers to remain open 24 hours a day, better serving their communities and especially assisting in maternity and infant care.
