Designed to Change the World

Millions of people in the world live many kilometers away from sources of safe drinking water.
If they drink unsafe water, they may get a diacase that is carried through water, such as cholera or dysentery.
So they have to spend many hours each day transporting water from drinkable sources.
People carry heavy loads of it on their heads over long distances, and this often damages their necks and shoulders.

For hundreds of years, this hard labor has been done mainly by women and children.

Can you imagine life without electricity? If it were not for electricity, your lives would be completely different
To should, could might
However, more than two billion people throughout the world live without electricity.
Many of them use kerosene lamps for light, but the lamps give off harmful fumes and do not provide sufficient light for working or studying.
Also, the cost of using kerosene every day is a heavy burden on the family budget.

Sam Goldman, an American who was living and working as a volunteer in a village in Benin, a country in West Africa, understood this problem
One day, there was an incident in the village, which had no electricity.
名詞扱い
A kerosene lamp had started a fire which burned down his neighbor's house, and a 12-year-old boy was badly burned.
This incident spurred Goldman to develop a safe and cost-efficient lantern.
He took a course at Stanford University geared to designing products for people in developing countries.
Through the course he developed a solar-powered lantern which he called the Kiran Solar Lantern.
This lantern can provide up to eight hours of light when it is fully charged and does not require any fuel.
~まで
This lantern has provided two million people in over 40 countries throughout the world with a new source of light.
