The project
Daniel Leperes lives in Mutaru Village. He has four children and all of them are in day school. He had to spend two hundred every week on bodaboda [motorbike] transport to take him to nearby town to buy kerosene. His children use a lantern to do their homework every evening. They have been complaining of eye problem because of the soot produced by the lantern.His wife who uses also a lantern while milking his cows every morning and evening, also complain so much on poor lighting and difficulties of using kerosene lamp on windy and rainy days.His watchman also uses a hand held torch during the night to watch over their flock from wild animals and also thieves.
Once he acquires the solar home system the children are expected to perform well in school because of extended study times in the night and early in the morning. Daniel will save money he uses on buying kerosene and on bodaboda transport. He will also save money he uses on paying watchman because the security lights are on all night scaring the wild animals away.
He says thank you for the support you'll give his family and group.

Impact
BnF focuses on sustainable energy projects in rural Kenya, offering households a 12-month payment plan to purchase a solar home system. The system enables clients to generate sufficient energy to power many basic necessities such as lights, radios, televisions, and other essential appliances. Solar home systems reduce reliance on polluting and health-threatening fuels such as kerosene, firewood, and coal for families' lighting and cooking needs.
Electricity opens new economic opportunities for families, enabling household incomes to grow progressively. It provides access to information and entertainment, allowing the children to spend time studying in the evenings and empowering women to engage more in household and local-level decision-making. It stands to reason that entire rural communities' livelihoods benefit from access to clean energy as their productivity, efficiency, and health prospers.
