Powering Progress

Dinah Waithira

Mt. Kenya region, Kiharu

Meet Dinah, a mother of four from the Murang'a Maragua area. For years, she faced financial strain, burning up to 15 candles each night to light her home for her children’s studies and evening tasks. That all changed when a friend introduced her to d.light’s home solar solutions. Today, Dinah enjoys reliable, affordable lighting, which has already improved her children’s performance in school. Beyond better study conditions, she can charge her phone and keep her rabbits safe at night. Thrilled with the impact, Dinah is now considering financing the purchase of a 32-inch TV through d.light, further upgrading her family’s home.
