It is now fully operational.<\/p>\n
The main objective of the project was to solve the problems arising from the grid electricity supply, which was of low quality, expensive and unreliable. The photovoltaic solar installation now powers the water pumping system, the chicken coop and the lighting of the agricultural area, significantly reducing the organization’s electricity bill and allowing reinvestment in new activities and projects for the benefit of the community.<\/p>\n
Casa do Gaiato, located on the outskirts of the village of Massaca, in the district of Boane, Maputo province, has been a pillar of social support for the surrounding rural communities for more than 30 years. This organisation provides food, healthcare, education and vocational support to children without families, as well as primary and secondary education.<\/p>\n
