SolarAid Wins Charity Awards International Aid & Development Category
By Melanie May
SolarAid took the top prize in the International Aid & Development category at the 2024 Charity Awards this week, winning for its Light a Village project in Malawi.
The project was piloting the free installation of plug-and-play solar home energy systems in Kasakula, one of the country’s poorest communities, after finding that even the poorest families could generally afford to pay for the energy they used, provided they didn’t need to pay for the cost of installation.
