Father Michael Mukasa is the director of Caritas Kiyinda-Mityana in Uganda. At his suggestion, his diocese is testing a new distribution model. The catechists will sell the lights for 7 USD. The catechists will keep 0.50 USD of each sale as incentive. The remainder of the funds will be used by the diocese to purchase more solar lights at 4.50 USD. The diocese should be able to increase the number of light purchased each time. With the miracle of compounding, the diocese may be able to provide solar lights to all of its families without electricity in as little as five years. Thanks Father Michael!
