About this fundraiser

Who are you? Prakash Foundation is a registered NGO working in western Rajasthan since 2016. What are you making or raising for? Each school gets two solar panels, eight LED tube lights and 30 take-home study lamps. How did it start? Our volunteers found that most children in Barmer stop studying when the sun sets because homes have no reliable power. What is your plan and timeline? Installation starts in January in 10 schools a month. We publish photos and the school list after every installation. How will the money be used? ₹7,500 per school for panels and lights, ₹30 per study lamp, the rest for transport and installation. Why does it matter? One working light adds two hours of study every evening.
