Solar Suitcase - Alongside Hope
And God said, “Let there be light… and that light was good.” – Genesis 1:3
It’s no secret, babies don’t check the clock when it’s time to be born. Day or night, birth happens. But in off-grid communities in Mozambique and Madagascar, nighttime deliveries can be incredibly risky. Without electricity, many women won’t even attempt the journey to a clinic after dark.
That’s where you – and a bright yellow Solar Suitcase – come in.
This life-saving case is mounted on a clinic wall, connected to a solar panel on the roof, and powered by the sun. The case holds everything a birth attendant needs to support a safe delivery: bright LED lights, a fetal Doppler, headlamps, phone chargers, and real peace of mind for labouring women. With your help, these suitcases change lives.
Our goal is to install 35 Solar Suitcases in Mozambique and 14 in Madagascar, bringing clean, reliable power to 49 clinics where women and babies deserve the very best care, no matter the hour.
Each Solar Suitcase costs $6,500 (Cdn). Our goal is to raise $320,000 – and thanks to a generous donor, every dollar you give before October 31, 2025 will be matched up to $150,000. That means your impact could double.
