"The biggest difference in my daily life is that am in a better and more presentable house. Plastering my house has saved me a lot of energy and time since I do not have to frequently repair it using local materials (cow dung and soil). Am also peaceful because my walls had begun falling down due to heavy rains but plastering has saved it. Thanks to GD."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that am in a better house, which does not leak like the thatched house I was in before.

Thanks to GD."

"The biggest difference in my life is that MU children are able to study easily using the solar, I no longer buy paraffin. This I believe will eventually lead to their improvement on grades because their is no day they miss doing their homework because of lack of paraffin. It will also improve my family health wise because solar is a cleaner and safer source of energy, unlike paraffin. "
