One of the challenges these future leaders face is not being able to study at night due to no electricity.  Solar lights are very instrumental in providing some sort of electricity to homes in deprived communities in Sierra Leone. It helps students to study at night (most especially in homes where there is no national electrical power) and make good grades in school.

In 2021, fifty-three solar lights were distributed to students in Sierra Leone. Twenty-three solar lights were distributed in Freetown and thirty in Kamawornie village. Feedback received by the students indicates that the solar lights have been very helpful to all. 

In 2022, Develop Africa's goal is to purchase and distribute 100 solar lights to students in Sierra Leone. We are so thankful for your generous support this past year and ask for your support again this year to help purchase and distribute 100 solar lights this year.   The future leaders in Sierra Leone are also so thankful for your support.

You can help achieve the goal of purchasing and distributing 100 solar lights by donating here or by purchasing the solar light from our amazon wish list- here
