Transforming lives through access to electricity

‘We’re not going to reach the vision 2030 if we don’t do it differently going forward. There will still be 600 million in Sub- Saharan Africa in 2030 who are without access to energy.  Can we do something with that, can we do something different?’

Children use BRIGHT solar lamps to do their homework at night. Women illuminate their paths for safety. Families power their homes. Travelers light up the dark. Entrepreneurs run their businesses and charge their phones.

I used to draw water from the borehole using a bucket and a rope. When I came to know about SUNami, I got the water pump and now I can pump water to fill the tank and also pump water to the farm for irrigation.
