Solar for Schools – Powering Education with the Sun

Imagine a school in a rural village that has everything except reliable electricity. Students struggle to read after sunset, computers sit unused due to power cuts, and teachers are limited in how they can teach. Now imagine changing all of that — with the power of community and blockchain. Solar for Schools is a global Web3 crowdfunding campaign designed to bring sustainable solar energy to schools in underserved communities. Our mission is to install solar panels at educational institutions that lack access to reliable electricity, starting with pilot schools in rural regions across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Through the power of decentralized crowdfunding, donors from anywhere in the world can contribute directly to impactful infrastructure that supports learning, improves safety, and helps reduce carbon emissions. All donations are recorded transparently on the blockchain, and funds are released through smart contracts only when verified milestones are met — ensuring 100% accountability and trust. But we’re not stopping there. Every contributor receives a unique NFT badge that commemorates their support. These digital badges aren't just collectibles — they tell a story of impact. Tiered NFTs (“Light Bringer,” “Classroom Hero,” “Solar Architect”) allow donors to proudly showcase their support, while large donors may even receive NFTs linked to specific schools or solar installations. Additionally, token holders (i.e., contributors) will be given the chance to vote on future school locations, giving the community a say in where the next installation should happen. It’s democracy powered by the blockchain — and the sun. With your help, we can illuminate classrooms, empower teachers, and give students the bright future they deserve — one solar panel at a time.
