the 95,000 villages yet to be connected to electricity
in India, 18,000 villages most likely never would,
due to their remoteness" (United Nations Development
Program Fact sheet - 2008)
Two volunteers from New Zealand (Jenny Baker
and Clare Blackman) have taken on the Yearoutndia
Solar
Light Project challenge to light up the lives
of 30 tribal families at the Mannan Tribal Settlement
in the western Ghat Mountains of Kerala, South India.
Their task is to fund raise enough money to buy 30-40
Solar light kits to be installed by them when they
travel to India in August. All the funds raised will
go directly to the project and they are looking for
other volunteers from New Zealand to join them on
this trip. Please contact them on Jenny@yearoutindia.com
