SolarAid reaches to the Rehoboth Orphanage in Mkushi
We have been very busy here in the SolarAid office in Lusaka. Some Sisters from a nearby orphanage recently took part in some training in Fiwila in macrosolar maintenance.
Sisters from Rehoboth Orphanage, Mkushi.
The sister in charge of the orphanage, Sister Prudence (seated third from the left), showed us how the solar systems installed five years ago were not working as expected.
Abel and I went to the orphanage (which has more than 200 children) and found that it was actually the lack of cleaning of panels which had led to the problem. We quickly showed one of the boys at the orphanage how the cleaning is done.
I'm pleased to say that after two weeks, we contacted Sister Prudence and she was all smiles as she confirmed that the problem was no more!
More from Zambia soon!
