The goal of this project is to help make portable solar USB chargers and provide them to Ukrainian civilians and defenders in need. To help, please click 'Donate for Solar!'

Why Ukrainians lack electricity?

Millions of people in Ukraine are left without access to electricity due to the deliberate destruction of the country's energy infrastructure. No electricity also means discharged cell phone batteries - and no connection to the world, and no information about ongoing air raid alerts that many Ukrainians rely on for their safety. Similar problem applies to other portable electronic devices that are so common in modern day life.

How solar chargers can help?

Our approach is to provide Ukrainians with solar powered chargers to help keep defenders and civilians online. We take small solar panels in the USA and turn them into USB chargers to power devices at local events in the USA. We then ship these solar chargers to our sister organization in Ukraine, and distribute them across the country.

How can you help with the solar chargers?

Please donate to this Solar Chargers project to help bring power to back to Ukrainians in need. One solar panel costs approximately $100 to purchase, convert to a charger, and deliver to Ukraine. The more panels we can provide - the more people we can help.

Other ways to engage with this project

You can run your own fundraiser for the panels, but clicking on the 'Join the Team' button above and creating your own personalize subpage with unique link. In addition, you can participate in one of the Solar Charger Project events and help our team repurpose old solar panels to send to Ukraine.
