Help Light Up Schools and Health Clinics in Uganda

Our newest promotional initiative is to install our systems free of charge in schools and health clinics throughout Uganda. If you would like to support this program and help light up a school, you may do so through the purchase of a very cool solar LED keychain flaslight. Village Energy can be in your pocket for only 6 USD, and you'll have the assurance that every purchase goes towards the installation of our solar lighting systems in a school or health clinic in Uganda.

Our partner in this effort is Giant Steps of St. Louis, a school for children with autism spectrum disorder. The great folks at Giant Steps have agreed, as part of a global awareness and service project for their students, to help coordinate the packaging and shipping of the keychains.

Together, we've named this program Light up Africa.

We manufacture micro solar systems, incorporating recycled materials and the skills of local artisans. Globally, two billion people light their homes with dangerous and expensive kerosene lamps. In Africa alone, 800 million individuals are without electricity. To reach this market, we create jobs for people in the communities where we sell, including product assembly, regional dealerships, sales positions, and solar system installation. We believe that vertically integrating into the communities where we work augments our ability to affect change in its peoples' lives.
