Sustainable Energy Development for Refugee Camps
Hey y’all! Our Humanitarian Product Design team is partnering with the Red Cross to provide sustainable power for refugee families all over the world and we need your help! Power demand is a huge problem in refugee camps and when it is available, it is rarely environmentally friendly. We are creating a device to economically and efficiently convert wind energy to usable power so that refugees have access to electricity for their most basic needs.
Help launch us into our goal of designing and manufacturing this device for refugees by donating to our team! Thank you, and hook ‘em!

Studying at Night
The 50% of children who attend school at refugee camps can continue to learn even after the sun goes down!
