Giakonda Solar Schools
Giakonda Solar Schools was registered with the Charity Commission on 12th September 2016 as Charity number 1169138.
We began our volunteering work with a visit to Zambia in January 2015.
Trustees
The trustees are Howard Kirkman, Wendy Kirkman, Avi Koirala, Jason Brown and Malcolm Boorer.
Purpose
Our purpose is to further the advancement of education of children and adults, particularly in the field of computers, computer science and related subjects. In rural communities where there is no grid power, we supply and install solar power equipment. This provides the necessary infrastructure for computer systems and LED lighting.
We carry out this work in Zambia, Nepal and other countries as agreed by the trustees.
Following a large donation of desktop computers and laptops, we have also developed a project to help individuals in Swansea, Wales, who are similarly at a disadvantage.
