We're now back in the UK and trying to raise funds for this South America solar project. It's really exciting to be doing all this work. However, we really do need the funds urgently in order to start a pilot project in Argentina very soon.
Just £20,000 would allow us to do the pilot project while we try to raise the funds for the whole programme. With that £20,000 we could pay for a volunteer solar engineer from the UK to spend six months with Warmi in order to start training them, buy a first lot of solar materials, start setting up the systems and identify the best places for solar installations for when we start scaling up the programme. The photo above is of a solar system on a home in rural Bolivia - a place the electricity grid will never reach. So please give!
