As we celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Lights, a time that symbolizes the triumph of good over evil, let’s reflect on the privilege we have in our daily lives. While we often find it challenging to live without electricity for even a moment, countless rural areas in developing countries still lack access to this essential resource. This Diwali, what better way to honor the spirit of the festival than by bringing light to those who need it most?
The Indian community in Ghana is spearheading a transformative campaign to install at least 5 solar street lights per village across 1,000 villages in remote areas. This initiative not only aims to enhance safety and security but also strives to empower communities, fostering a brighter future for all.
You can be a part of this noble cause! By sponsoring a solar street light for $100, which includes installation, you will not only illuminate a village but also leave a lasting legacy. Your name will be inscribed on the light pole, and you will receive a photo along with the geo-location of the installed light for your records. Together, let’s spread the light and joy of Diwali to those who need it most!
