At Barefoot College, we are witnessing the quiet strength of 8 extraordinary women from families affected by silicosis—a deadly disease that has taken away not just health, but livelihoods.
With no male breadwinner to support them, these women have chosen to rise. Through our solar training program, they are learning to build and repair solar systems—gaining skills that will power not just homes, but futures.
In every wire they connect and every diagram they draw, there is resilience.
In every smile, there is pride.
This is more than technical training—this is dignity, purpose, and transformation in motion.
Let’s celebrate their journey of learning, leading, and lighting up lives. 🔆
