We would like to take on for us a huge project to raise £30,000 to supply electricity via a transformer for a whole community of 198 families over 1500 people in the region of Dembi Dolo in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia.  Bringing electricity to a community is life changing it allows the community to move up a step.  Electricity not only brings the obvious benefits of light, it allows children to study after dark, potentially improved communications and education via the internet in the school.  It will also bring fresh water allowing electric pumps to be a possibility.  So our big challenge is to raise £30,000, it would be great to have a couple of sponsors but if you have any ideas of raising funds it will be greatly appreciated. Once the transformer is in place electricity can be supplied to each house for about £150.00. A project plan is available on request.
