The association Burkina Kelegre multiplies projects in Benin thanks to the resale of Lagazel lamps in France!
We have already told you about it: the association Burkina Kelegre, from Bretagne, distributes Lagazel lamps in France, and thus generates revenues that help finance solidarity projects in Benin. Between September 2022 and January 2023, 4 collective charging stations and nearly 500 lamps (both individual lamps and lamps on stations) were made available to three Beninese institutions in different regions.
In each place, the lamps are distributed according to the learning conditions of each student, in relation to the precariousness of his or her situation and the expressed need. All the equipment is managed by a dedicated management committee, which ensures routine maintenance and makes sure that safety conditions are guaranteed. Prior to the beneficiaries taking possession of the lamps, awareness-raising sessions have been organized. Thus, all the conditions are met for the installations to be sustainable!
According to the people in charge on site, the first feedback is very positive: “Everywhere we went, the impressions are good. This project improves the quality of life of the beneficiaries […]. The lamp model designed for the students is very practical, durable and guarantees a long life for the device.”
Lagazel Benin, with its production workshop based in Porto Novo, provides all the solar solutions installed on these projects.
