=Challenge=
Currently, more than 6,000 households in Tigone, Mphamba, and Kanyanga Villages do not have access to electricity. Many of the affected people are women and girls and continue to use kerosene lamps for lighting. Kerosene is not good for their health and their unborn babies and bad for our planet. This project will affect more than 6,000 people in the three-mentioned villages of Eastern Province to switch from kerosene lamps to Solar Lamp use and save them $1,000,000 annually.

=Long-Term Impact=
The project will distribute solar lamps to 6,000 households living on less than $2 a day, allowing them to rise out of poverty by using their saving from kerosene purchase for their families health and well-being. This will also help school-going children to study for longer hours and compete with their peers in urban schools during national exams.Families will save more than $1 Million annually for switching from kerosene to solar and over 10,000 tonnes of CO2 emission will be avoided annually.
