One of the highlights of our activity is to install electricity for the families in our care. It is a little bit expensive, as we install solar panels and the company that provides this service also offers a small TV with the panels, so I think it is well worth.

Today, with Daniel’s help (not tagging you in order to protect you from pirates) we have installed electricity, solar panels, light-bulbs and a TV at Kubona’s house. I am so very happy and the girl is overjoyed.

Kubona hasn’t been doing very well at school last year, and now we thought of giving her a little bit of extra-motivation. She will have light to do homework in the evening and she will improve her language skills through watching TV. I am very happy that we have managed this. Those photos, very plain and raw, depicting the installation process, offer us a very good “window” into how things look like, over there.

We should remember this more often – that while we enjoy all the sweetness of modern life, with electricity, running water and healthcare, there are others for whom such services are unattainable luxuries.

Kubona is very grateful today; let us be grateful as well.
