Our Purpose
​
The PowerOneForOne Foundation aims to significantly transform the lives of the most vulnerable ones and give them access to electricity. Lack of electricity has a strong impact on everyday life activities such as cooking or education - it is a necessity. There is a significant connection between per capita electricity consumption and human development. Together with the widening gap between supply and demand for electricity in less developed countries, there is no doubt that action is needed.
The PowerOneForOne Foundation's objective is to alleviate this type of poverty by offering an affordable solution that makes renewable energy sources available to low-income communities. By facilitating the access to energy with solar home systems to households in remote communities, we will enable access to a source of reliable and clean energy.
Hereby we also promote the shift towards a greener and cleaner society, while at the same time improving rural people's livelihoods with access to energy.
The PowerOneForOne Foundation will light the spark. With access to electricity, we will contribute to a necessary development. Children have more time to read, to study, as well as for family activities which positively impact their literacy rates and general well-being. This is fundamental for developing better skills and increasing chances for future employment.
​
