Hope Vision Day and Boarding School
Mityana, Uganda
Students & Teachers: 520
Number of Lights: 76
Additional Hours of Light Received: 1548 (as of April
30, 2018)
23. Solar Lighting - 5 Area Schools
Nearly 3000 students and teachers
Solar power would allow schools to board
students and make sure they have ample time for
night preps. Currently students walk home—for
some, that can be up to 5 kilometers away.
24. Need for Water - Over 3000 residents
There is currently one water pump in the
community that produces 20 liters of water a
day. Villagers are forced to collect dirty water
from open wells. Solar powered borehole wells
will provide 64,000 liters of water for the
community
25. Solar Refrigeration - Kitimba Health Centre III
Serves 8,000 people.
At the Health Centre, the major issue is the lack of refrigeration. The
clinic does not have access to electricity and stores vaccines on ice in
a "cooler". A solar refrigeration system will enable long-term storage of
medication and vaccinations.
