Energy poverty is putting babies at a disadvantage before they are even born. Providing solar light improves the lives of women and children all around the world. #endenergypoverty #energypoverty #illuminatingfutures #solarpower #solarnenergy #giftoflight #equality #mothers

๐Ÿ“š How would you keep your child motivated to study or read if you were plunged into darkness every night? It wouldn't be easy, would it? Last month, our NGO partner in Cambodia, CRST, distributed 355 lights to children from Khnar Krav Primary School, which lacks electricity.

CRST's mission aligns with our own to break the cycle of poverty for Cambodian students through education. Providing students with light is an essential part of that. #energypoverty #endenergypoverty #illuminatingfutures #illimunitinglives #cambodia #education #povertycycle
Across sub-Saharan Africa, 590 million people don't have access to reliable power. Mothers deliver babies in pitch black, the only light from phone or candle. This Christmas will you help lift a baby out of darkness? ๐Ÿ’› Please make a gift today at bit.ly/3DqfNAZ.

๐Ÿ’ก The difference between life and death can be a simple light. Let's bring safety & dignity to women by providing clean & reliable solar lighting. #illuminateapath #christmasappeal #solarbirthingkits #illuminatingbirths #energypoverty #endenergypoverty #illuminatinglives
This statistic is heartbreaking and needs to change. ๐Ÿ’ก Our mission to gift lights to children around the globe experiencing energy poverty is to stop numbers like this from being true. #endenergypoverty #energypoverty #illuminatingfutures #solarpower #solarnenergy #giftoflight
