Many families live in rural villages without a connection to the national electrical grid. Cedar Ridge is working with our partners to help families with very limited income to install a simple solar panel on their roof. The 30-watt solar panels power three lightbulbs and a phone charging station for at least seven hours a day, allowing time for studies, cooking, and other family activities. So far we have funded panels for 48 families, and this Christmas season, with your help, we hope to fund an additional 30. Each panel costs $180 to purchase and install. And every contribution helps!
