Project Chirag

What began in 2010 as an initiative to provide solar electrification to villages with limited or no access to the electricity grid, light for all, has evolved into an intervention model that allows us to bring development to villages, all on the pivot of sustainable energy, solar power. With our supportive partners, and the ingenuity of our villagers, we have innovated ways in which solar power can benefit the forgotten Bharat of our India, and truly catapult them out of poverty. The need to provide basics rights is paramount. The right to light. The right to water. The right to a livelihood. Since 2010 we have worked in 522 villages in 11 states, with the contribution of innumerable benevolent donors, to impact 116,166 lives. We haven’t worked in vacuum, and have instead built an ecosystem of support with our youth, our contributors, our grassroot partners, and our suppliers. We are all passionate about being part of the change we want to see, and are working each day towards developing self sufficient and sustainable villages in rural India. The goal seems mammoth. Almost unachievable. But it isn’t. This ecosystem we work hard to maintain allows us to provide interventions one village at a time. However, these numbers do express the urgency of what we must do.
