“The night after we installed solar power in Bwe for the ‘Light a Village’ project in the Congo, we wandered in the village to see who was using their lights that were being powered by Goal Zero batteries. We came upon this hut that had over 30 children crammed inside, all who had paid to come watch a show. It was the first movie house in Bwe, and one of the first of many businesses born from the ‘Light A Village’ project! Given power and light, it’s amazing to see the ingenuity of what entrepreneurs can create. Small shops, refrigeration services, cell phone charging – it’s truly endless.
Tifie started because we had a vision for how life can change when someone has a job and can provide for themselves. We had no idea the creative jobs that would be created from the products and tools that we provide.” – Halen, Director of Tifie
