Mission

SonLight Power improves the lives of children, families and communities via sustainable solar-powered solutions. SonLight applies Christian faith and solar energy to advance education, job training, wellness, water access, spiritual and economic development.

Programs

2 programs

Mission Trips: SonLight Power annually sponsors mission trips that impact children and their families living without access to reliable electricity. These trips generally consist of volunteer project teams that install solar power systems - connecting schools, medical clinics, community centers, orphanages, water-pumping stations and churches to a 30-year supply of sustainable electricity. Applications powered by SonLight solar projects include lights and multimedia tools to improve education, refrigeration to store food and life-saving vaccines and medicines, and water-pumping where clean water is scarce. Over the lifetime of SonLights collaborative projects, the solar power generated makes an immediate and lasting impact for tens of thousands of lives.

Expenses: $130K

Solar School/Training: SonLight Power provides hands-on solar training in the U.S. and in mission areas to build technical expertise and encourage team-building. SonLight has designed workshops and curriculum to fit the needs of various audiences, primarily those looking to apply solar power in the mission field, educators interested in adding a solar power component to STEM-Based curriculum, and those curious about the general applications of solar power.
