Let There be light: Dedicated To Bringing Solar Power to Communities in Need

Our commitment is to bring light / solar energy to remote mountainous regions especially the schools of Nepal. Winter brings on short days and so to have a source of power stored in batteries for light and the possibility of Internet for education, especially in the case of medical emergencies, dramatically improves the quality of a small communities future and of her lives.

We have installed over 100 Solar Panels for schools and homes in Nepal with no electricity in remote villages as a part of our “Greening One Village at a Time Project”.

Children and Grandparents are experiencing their first exposure to light bulbs in areas that are so remote they may never have had nor seen electricity. We have donated many items of necessity, as well as comfort, to those who have so little.

Education

Education comes in many forms and we like to think that we inspire great thinking, awareness, kindness, love and to believe that they can become anything that they want, with a little help from our friends and the community anything is possible.

100% of your Donation goes to one of our many Projects.

ADD $150 purchases Books, Writing Supplies or Back Packs and School Uniforms.

Changing Lives

Sadly in some countries being born with a cleft lip or cleft palate is considered bad luck, a curse, the mark of god.

These children will be subjected to a life of ridicule and little chance of finding work or a marriage arrangement.

We now know that Cleft Lip Palate CLP are facial and oral malformations that occur very early in pregnancy.

It takes as little as 45 minutes for life-changing surgery which can create a bright, beautiful new smile to a waiting child.

To date we have funded over 110 transformative surgeries. Families who walked days to reach the local Hospital were not disappointed.
