Day 12 of the 12 days of Christmas - our Chalk Designer shared with us - The Charity Watts of Love
Watts of Love (WOL) delivers solar lights plus micro-business and resource training to areas of
the world that face extreme poverty. In these areas, most homes are lit by dangerous kerosene
lamps that often cause burns, asthma, or other breathing ailments. Today, more than 1 billion
people live without electricity, so when the sun goes down, the work day and study day END.
Through its innovative, affordable, renewable solar lighting, WOL is able to turn dark to light—
eliminating the need for kerosene fuel, which can free up a family’s income by 30%.
WOL teaches light recipients how to use that reclaimed income to invest in new resources,
such as buying an animal, starting a business, or sending their children to school. All of this
breaks a chain of poverty that is transforming lives, one family and one home at a time.
