it takes a lot of passion to make our work possible. in the last four years, we've completed 50 projects, improving the lives of over 200,000 african people. we couldn't have done it alone.
in 2011, teenagers around the country raised over $30,000 to support our work. schools, synagogues and university campuses were responsible for powering five schools and medical clinics, and thanks to those who joined our birthday and mitzvah campaigns, we were able to power another eights projects, impacting over 50,000 lives. we've built a community of 14,000 supporters around the country and world and have over 400 volunteers.
these are the people who put the heart in jewish heart for africa.
