The Friends of Lesotho Donation Committee has approved an additional request for $700 to fund a gas generator. They will pass this request on to the full board, and we should know fairly soon if the FOL Board approves the request.
I submitted the request to FOL because I have been having trouble getting donations for solar power, and we desperately need some sort of power to run all the computers. I had hoped to use a gas generator as our back-up power source, but until we get additional funding for solar panels, it will have to be our primary power supply.
FOL has already donated $1436 for internet hardware and service and security supplies.
