A fenced-in compound the size of a small village, about 90 students and their families, with NO access to electricity. Unthinkable in our society. Yet a Bible school in West Africa opened its doors back in 1978 and has experienced extensive growth in students in the years since.
To this day, there is no prospect of an electricity grid to alleviate the hardships of everyday life. Apart from a few lights in the administration building and the teachers’ houses, the compound remains shrouded in darkness.
The construction and installation of a “micro grid in container form” (currently underway) – will bring a change from night to day. The supply of solar energy will not only bring additional light, but also additional water for the care of the student gardens. To keep our minds sharp, our bodies also need to be supplied with the right nutrient-rich ingredients.
The access to more and stable energy will also give a big step towards the modernization of the school. In which, in the future, every student will have access to doing computer research via the Internet. Purpose: $10.000 (of total 30.000)
