Join Us in Powering the PDI Education Resource Center

Help us to ensure that PDI Education Resource Center has reliable power and clean, sustainable water. In Bududa, electricity is available on average only one day per week, making solar energy not just an alternative—but a necessity.

To achieve this, we are raising $40,000 to install

🌞 A full solar power system, and

💧 A solar-powered water borehole.

The Center will serve up to 20,000 children and young people in our community
