Our project is to electrify the primary school in the village of Lâ (115km west of Ouagadougou, capital of Burkina Faso). This village is not connected to the national electricity grid.

​

More specifically, we count:

• install the necessary infrastructure to light up the school (solar panels, lamps, batteries, inverter, etc.);

• install a solar charging station in front of the school. Accessible to students, teachers and also villagers (total of 1500 inhabitants), it will allow those who wish to recharge their mobile phone;

• install a solar street lamp in front of the school to light it up at night;

​

​

The installation of these infrastructures (4 solar panels, 4 batteries, 27 lights, an electrical terminal and a lamppost), the training of the inhabitants, the one-year curative maintenance contract, the logistics chain and communication represent a total cost which amounts to €16,640.00.

​

We are lucky to have key partners for this project like  Technipipe  (company where Yannick did his apprenticeship).

​

We have produced a very relevant report. Thanks to the latter and our budget estimates, we are able to determine that €6.90 allows a child to be educated in an electrified and lit school for one year. With 13.30€, we give illiterate women access to evening classes for 1 year.  

​

This is why all donations, regardless of their amounts, are important to us.
