Green Empowerment
Green Empowerment works with local partners around the world to strengthen communities by delivering renewable energy and safe clean water. We collaborate with Indigenous peoples, rural communities, local organizations - and you - to improve health outcomes, build climate change resilience, advance gender equity and help lift families out of poverty.
“Kids, sit here in front and join us. We want you to understand that everyone is doing this for you, so you don’t have to do your homework in the dark.” - Banie Lasimbung, Founder & Lead Engineer, TONIBUNG - TObpinai NIngkokoton koBUruon kampuNG
This moment from a community meeting in Pokolon Paus, Malaysia, this May said it all. Every voice at the table, every generation represented. The meeting brought together residents, leaders, and yes, the children who stand to benefit most from the work being done. Because when kids understand why decisions are being made, they grow up knowing they matter. And that changes everything.

What an incredible Spring Benefit 🎉☀️ Thanks to the generosity of our community, we raised $107,000! Enough to bring solar water pumping to three communities in Puno, Peru, or power an entire community in Malaysia with a solar mini-grid.
A huge thank you to Claudia Romero Saavedra, our Peru & Bolivia Program Coordinator, for joining us and sharing her incredible work Energía, Ambiente y Sostenibilidad supporting Indigenous Aymara communities across the Andes. 🙏
Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate and learn! Check out the photos from the event and see for yourself! 📸👇
