Good morning to all of you, Thank you again for your involvement! Thanks to you, we have raised CHF 53,885 for the «Solar Women Farmers».
For our part, the project is moving forward on several fronts. Olivier is currently ordering the technologies and is preparing a mission to Mali for the end of the year. He should leave in November to bring the first solar pump, if sanitary conditions allow. Manon is in charge of making and gathering your counterparts. We would like to have an aperitif at the end of the year for all those who would like to come and collect their counterparts directly from Antenna, but given the evolution of the situation in Geneva, we will rather propose several dates, so as not to be too numerous. Do not hesitate to give us your opinion in comments. While waiting for the next news, be well!
Manon et Olivier

This is it, we made it! We have reached our goal and we will be able to pre-finance technologies for solar women farmers! A huge thank you to all of you, who have mobilized for our project, we are very happy and proud to be able to realize it thanks to you! Many thanks to the Impact Fund for the support (financial, but also advice before and throughout the campaign, especially thanks to Denise)! And thank you to all those who were involved in the campaign, without you we would not have been able to do it!
Donations collected from now on will be used to finance the awareness of solar energy. The campaign remains open until Saturday noon. If people around you still wish to participate, it is possible!

One more little effort, we’re almost there!
The campaign ends on Saturday at noon. Thanks to your help, we have received the support of the Impact Fund, 25’000 chf, but we still have to reach our goal, otherwise the whole campaign will fall apart! If each contributor can find another person around him/her, we are sure we can make it! It’s time to show the power of the crowd!

We passed the 20’000 chf mark, a huge thank you to all of you! If each of you can contact one more person, we will pass the 200 contributors, the 25’000 chf mark and we will be able to unlock the doubled contribution (25’000 chf) of the WeMakeIt Impact Fund!
To celebrate this, we invite you to enjoy a good «mafé» ! Discover the recipe in return for only 5 chf. Thanks again, you are great!

Manchmal werden wir nach den Auswirkungen der jüngsten politischen Ereignisse auf das Projekt gefragt.
Die Unsicherheit in den zentralen und nördlichen Regionen Malis sowie der Staatsstreich vom 18. August verstärken die Notwendigkeit, mit lokalen Partnern und der ländlichen Bevölkerung zusammenzuarbeiten. Unser Projekt, zu dem dieser Ansatz bereits gehört, wird daher von diesen Ereignissen nicht direkt beeinflusst. Gegenwärtig ist die Überwinterungszeit in Mali zu Ende. Alle Menschen, die helfen können, sind auf dem Feld, um zu ernten und die Früchte zu ernten. Den Rest des Jahres werden Sorghum, Hirse oder Weizen verkauft und/oder verarbeitet. Erst nächstes Jahr werden dank Ihnen einige Frauenverbände ihre eigene Solarmühle nutzen können!

Merci à tous nos proches d’avoir participé à l’apéritif de lancement de la campagne, mardi passé. On a beaucoup de chance d’avoir un si beau parc à deux pas de la fondation et la météo a été clémente. Ajoutez à ça des fidèles amis d’Antenna, quelques verres et on rassemblait tous les ingrédients pour passer un très agréable moment! Un grand merci également à nos premiers contributeurs et à tous nos proches qui se sont mobilisés!
