Lights Up One’s Life 2015

Global Ambassador’s Jane Oyugi and Mark Collins completed their 3rd OML distribution in Tanzania in November.  They distributed 192 Nokero lights to students.  While in Tanzania under their organization called, Sustenersol, they also worked on bringing clean energy and clean drinking water to the Dodoma region of Tanzania. They installed a microgrid at a local primary school, installed high efficiency LED lights and solar street lights, and installed a water purification system.  With the lights they distributed with One Million Lights and Sustenersol hundreds of students can now study at home with safe, clean lighting and not worry about fire and fumes from kerosene lamps.
