After a successful mission in Kenya, working with World Vision Finland and World Vision Kenya, and with sponsorship from Wärtsilä, we have piloted our technology in Tanzania.
As local partner, we have chosen the Global Resource Alliance, a Tanzanian organization also connected to the Californian spirit through the co-founders, Tara Blasco and Lyn Hebenstreit. Lorin and Heikki have worked closely with the great Tanzanian team, mainly Madaraka Nyerere and Elizabeth Bugidu.
GRA’s mission is to facilitate innovative solutions and community development that fosters hope, joy and abundance among the people in the country’s Mara region, and with GoSol.org they are able to compliment their existing activities of organic agriculture, permaculture and reforestation by supporting the rural population in sustainable, income-generating activities with the GoSol.org technology.
We love their holistic approach of solving poverty by empowering people of the Mara region, working at the same time on solar cooking, permaculture to restore soils and provide food, and natural healing of malaria with "neem" (a very powerful tree from India).
We’ll soon release inspirational videos of new communities using different applications of the Lytefire. Meanwhile, discover the achievement of GRA-Tanzania below.
