Chapter 2: Education
Why Education?
Solar Chapter decided to make Education as its second chapter after seeing the students of SDN As Manulea during their first implementation visit for Chapter 1: Water for Umutnana, a neighboring village to As Manulea village. SDN As Manulea, at the time of visit, did not have running water in the school. The successful creation of new water channels, during Solar Chapter’s first project, led our team to believe the greater good we can engender to other places outside of Umutnana. One of the team’s ideas focuses on how the abundance of water near Umutnana can be used to the village’s advantage. Our team saw that we could build more waterways to resolve the water crisis still experienced in the surrounding villages.
