We are transforming lives with solar lights to help both people and the planet.

Story

1 in 4 people on this planet, including 550 million Africans living in rural areas, do not have access to electricity. The lack of access to electricity inhibits their economic development. Electricity can power their mobile phones, light their homes, and pump up water for irrigation. Renewable energy provides an affordable and eco-friendly way to improve their lives.
 
Join Rick on his 7,000 km journey from Cape Town to Nairobi to raise awareness for renewable energy in Africa, and support him to raise 50,000 Euros to change the lives of more than 4000 schoolchildren in Zambia.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
