Solar Panels for Rwandan PreSchool

IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD!

Once upon a time, (that's about 20 years ago), my friend Cathy decided to go Gorilla trekking in Rwanda.  It was so amazing there, she went back to learn more about Rwanda.  While she was there she met a woman who ran an orphanage.  The woman asked for help so Cathy  worked there for a week.   And then, something wonderful happened, she went back to Rwanda, again and again, until one day; she never came home.  She stayed in Rwanda, fell in love with the children, the people, and above all their hope. 

20 years later she is still striving to help these eager people become happier, wiser and above all, healthier.

Here is what we are trying to do to help.

The school she runs has only sporadic electricity.  It is unreliable and very expensive.  We searched to find a way to help provide consistent, environmentally friendly electricity to her school, so that she can add evening classes, have consistent hot water, the ability to cook hot food, and maybe run a few computers.

We are paying for several solar panels, collection systems and all the wiring etc necessary to provide full-time, consistent power to her school, in an environmentally responsible way. 

How great would it feel to know you helped shine a little light on a remote school, full of eager children, who can pass their light on to future generations?

Your generosity is just a click away, and you will:  1) help Cathy's school thrive, 2) provide sustainable energy with a very tiny carbon footprint and 3) have sent some wonderful positive energy out into this turbulent world!

If everyone does just a little bit, a whole lot gets done!
