How Solar Is Saving Newborns' Lives in Sierra Leone — Episode 204: Project Bo
How Solar Is Saving Newborns' Lives in Sierra Leone — Episode 204: Project Bo YouTube video by Cleaning Up Podcast

Help! ❤️

YouTube flagged our @cleaninguppod.bsky.social documentary on #ProjectBo as political advertising. 😬

Using #solar power to help save babies' lives is NOT political! 🌞

We've re-edited, now we REALLY need your likes, comments, RTs and shares to get the word out! 🙏

A screenshot of the #Victron remote monitoring of the solar/battery system at Bo Government Hospital - showing how the state-of-charge line dropping as the batteries kept the babies alive over the night of 14-15 April during a long power cut.

This is a screenshot from the remote monitoring of the #ProjectBo PV system at the Government Hospital neonatal unit in Bo, Sierra Leone. See that blue line? That's the batteries. Overnight 14-15th April, a long power cut. Only the minigrid kept the oxygen, heat & lights on!

To everyone who has donated to #ProjectBo so far: thanks! We are half way to the £100,000 target.

To everyone else: in 2018 no baby should die because of a power cut. But in Sierra Leone they do, and you can help stop it.

You absolute star! @willr_s is running a 50km ultra-marathon in #Australia's Blue Mountains for #ProjectBo. Because in 2018 sick babies should not be dying just because of a power cut. https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/wraywardsmith
