FADECO COMMUNITY RADIO has started a program to bring cheap solar powered lights into rural schools in Karagwe. This project is possible thanks to the subsidy provided by D-Light East Africa.

Through this project, D-Light East Africa, has accepted to subsidize solar lanterns of famous known as SOLATA which normally sell at a commercial retail price of TShs 22,500/- each to a subsidized price of TShs 10,000/-.

Under this project, students will have to register their names through their headmasters and pay 10,000/- for each of the SOLATA D-Lights.

BENEFITS OF THE PROJECT:

It is hoped that, by providing light to rural schools, students will be able to do their evening study, and hence improve theiur performance in class. This will result in an increased number of students who follow their prep work and hence an increased number of students who revise, study at home or in their dormitories, with a corresponding increase in number of students who pass their exams.

Healthwise, the provision of cleaner light, will ensure better health to the students. they will nopt have to strain theiur eyes as is the case with kerosene lanterns which in addition to poor light, emit smoke and soot which is hazardous to human life.
