Each year in partnership with WE CARE SOLAR, Eastway Middle School deploys a portable solar energy kit to a country in Africa. Last school year we completed our second kit in hopes it would be installed prior to schools closing throughout the world in March. Due to the pandemic installation was delayed, but we are excited to announce that in November of this year, our kit wast was installed in Ewaso Nyiro Primary School in Laikipia West, Kenya. The solar energy kit will provide electricity to 5 classrooms that serve 15 teachers and 465 students.
We are so proud of our Eastway students!!
