Imagine a hospital without light

Help Laura Stachel of WE CARE Solar bring solar light to rural Nigerian clinics

Laura has traveled to Northern Nigeria several times over the last two years. 60% of Nigeria has no access to electricity, and the remaining 40% that do have access, only have electricity for a few hours a day.

Sadly, even hospitals are included in this rationing of power. Time and time again, she witnessed situations where effective light could be the difference between performing a procedure or sending a patient away.

Over the past year, WE CARE Solar and One Million Lights have sent more than 130 solar lights to Nigerian hospitals. Help Laura take more lights to Nigeria on her next trip! Adopt the project plan below:
