Excited to share part of the work we have done in collaboration with our partners in the Wezesha Agri economic empowerment program in Kajiado county. The program seek to empower over 1,800 women and youth - and resilient young farmers - like Simone Sankale and Jacinta Ndanu - determined to break free from a system that has excluded them from the profits. One of the major accomplishments of the program has been observing community members invest in various solar solutions including - Productive use of energy solutions (PUEs) to sustainably run their business operations. In addition, members of 2 community water projects have collectively invested in solar mechanized borehole water supply systems. The solar systems are currently benefiting approximately 1,360 household members with affordable, clean and safe water. We look forward replicating this success to other counties and build resilient communities in Kenya and beyond.
