Solar for life

Recently I've met a lot of ministers who have given me good feedback on our work. I have also repeatedly been told that the President of Tanzania and his wife are aware of SolarAid's work and are interested in what we are doing. This is hugely encouraging and flattering!

In other news, the 200 solar panels that were donated to us have arrived at the port of Tanzania, so I'm busy dealing with the customs officials to release them. Once this hurdle is overcome, we can start installing them on healthclinics.

These solar panels are bigger and more expensive, but from what I've seen in similar projects, they make a huge difference in the number of lives saved. We plan to install on 30 clinics in the next couple of years.

Just the other day, a woman came into a clinic severely injured and because the facility had a solar panel and was able to store refrigirated blood, her life was saved with a transfusion. This woman would not be alive now were it not for the panel on the roof.

This story demonstrates how solar can literally be a life saver. Please help in our mission of getting solar onto more clinics in rural Tanzania and support SolarAid today.

Thank you,
