It is our honor to continue to partner w OMAWA to bring more solar-powered solutions to support their incredible work. This project is providing lighting for rural students & their families, & highlights, once again, the power of the small-but-mighty solar lantern ⬇️🌱

Last week OMAWA had the privilege of distributing solar lanterns to 100 students and community members in Iring’ong’weni, rural Tanzania. ☀️💡
By expanding access to clean, reliable lighting, we’re helping children study, learn, dream bigger and build brighter futures.@Solar_FND

Fossil fuel bills never stop. A solar panel + battery is bought once and then provides free energy for 20-30 years. ☀️
👉 Even small scale solar + storage = energy sovereignty in the face of rising bills and increasing weather events

With other forms of power, we are just consumers. We get what we are given at whatever price the company sells it to us.
☀️ With solar, we become prosumers: we can produce our own energy, lower our bills, and if we produce more than we consume, we can sell it and make money."

"The ☀️ already gives us light, warmth and, via photosynthesis, our supper; now it is willing to provide us with all the power we could ever need."
