We are pleased to report that Day 1 of our solar light distribution went very well!
A big thank you to the teachers and school teams whose support and coordination made the distribution smooth and impactful.
After spending a long time in the customs warehouse, the solar lights finally got some much-needed sunlight—charging up and ready to serve the learners who need them most.
We remain truly grateful to our partners, especially Solar Buddy, and all supporters who have made this project possible. A full progress report will be shared with the team soon, and we are committed to ensuring that every child receives their light.
So far, the lights have been successfully delivered to the following schools:
Oloika moshoro Primary
Nkama primary school
Eroret Comprehensive
Mpirishi Primary
Enkoireroi school
Olodungoro Primary
Nkuyan Adam school
Taritik Primary
Each school received their allocated (125) units, and the head teachers have acknowledged receipt with appreciation. In some schools, distribution was accompanied by short sessions on how to use and maintain the solar lights properly.
Community Response
We’ve received overwhelming positive feedback from both pupils and teachers. Many schools have shared how the lights are already making a difference for pupils' evening study time and household use. Some schools recorded video thank-you messages which we are compiling for sharing.
Outstanding Requests
Over 1,300 additional requests for solar lights have been received from the same school communities, highlighting the continued and growing need for these resources.
