Here's just a small sampling of the large scale impact we want to make.
Behlana Village, India
In 2010, we installed CFL bulbs in 12 households in Behlana Village. In early 2014, statistics indicated that about 80% of the village was using CFL bulbs via word of mouth. Patterns further indicated increased investment in food, education and healthcare. Given this organic adoption of CFL bulbs, we decided to expand our efforts.
Moving forward, we installed CFL bulbs in the same village, covering over 1000 lives and making it a 100% CFL village.
Raipur Khurd Village, India
In addition, we installed CFL bulbs at homes as well as lit up a pre-school in Raipur Khurd Village.
Our work in these two villages alone lit up the lives of over 5400 individuals.
