LSTS was founded to help install solar in some of the poorest parts of the world, that are rich in their access to the sun but lack fundamental resources.

The foundation will work to provide power through solar technology.

Before solar energy reached her home, Maoli raced against the sunset to finish her homework. When darkness came, she kept studying with a flashlight tucked between her neck and shoulder.

Today, things look different. In El Chaguite, Honduras, Maoli and her family now have access to electric lighting through an off-grid solar kit provided by our partner, . She can continue doing her homework even after the sun goes down.

It's the same opportunity Sheila Becker Gailius wanted for children in Haiti. In 2014, instead of flowers, her family asked for solar lanterns so children could have light at home to study.

On Saturday, November 21, 2026, we're gathering at Boston College High School for the Hearts for Hope Gala to honor Sheila and support our mission: to offer hope through the power of the sun so that vulnerable communities have access to clean and reliable energy.

Tickets are $50, and sponsorships are available: https://donorbox.org/events/952563

In Paimol, northern Uganda, the School for Peace brings Acholi and Karimojong children, from two communities with a long history of conflict, into the same classrooms. LSTS is working to bring the school clean, reliable solar power.

Join us to hear the story in person on Friday, November 13, 2026, from 5 to 7 PM in the Presidential Dining Room at Saint Mary’s College in South Bend, Indiana. You’ll hear from Bill Jordan, Bernadette Jordan, Lucas Barreto and Matthew Egan, the people who have walked alongside this community and are leading this project.

In Paimol, northern Uganda, children from two communities with a long history of conflict learn side by side every day.

Peace is being built in that classroom. But the power goes out two to three times a week, and every outage interrupts their school day.

Help us give them power they can count on. 21 supporters have already given $2,271 toward our $10,000 goal.

Last week, our Executive Director, Nancy Brennan Jordan, and Director of Programs, Lucas Barreto, traveled to explore new opportunities for Let's Share the Sun. The visit included a Lunch and Learn with our longtime partners at Wood Mackenzie, followed by visits to potential project sites, connecting with local communities, and learning where solar energy could make a difference.

A special thank you to Mariana Russo for organizing and leading the efforts to bring our mission to Mexico!

There's still much to learn and plan, but we're excited about what's ahead and look forward to sharing more as this next chapter takes shape!

These days, Margarita Maldonado only knows the power went out because of one small sound. A click, as her solar system takes over.

For years, outages meant something else entirely. Hours of waiting, sometimes until the next day, while the insulin in her fridge slowly warmed.

Thank you to everyone who made that sound possible.

Don Antonio reminds us that behind every solar installation is a person, a home, and a life that can feel a little more secure when the power goes out. We’re proud of how far we’ve come, but there are still so many families to reach. And that’s why we keep showing up.

Game day! Today is the 5th annual Lift As We Climb Golf Tournament, and we're proud to be the selected beneficiary.

This year, a delegation from New Energy Equity and Lift As We Climb came to Puerto Rico to help power María's home with solar and battery storage.

Thank you to all of our sponsors and partners for making today possible.

This Thursday during NYC Climate Week, we had the opportunity to connect with organizations working across Puerto Rico to expand access to solar energy and build more resilient communities. Different approaches, different communities, but a shared vision for a stronger energy future for Puerto Rico.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Rockefeller Foundation and to Lourdes J. Rodríguez for the invitation and for bringing this community together, creating a space for meaningful conversations, new connections, and opportunities to support the work happening across the archipelago.

09/20/2026

We’re heading to New York tomorrow for NYC Climate Week, and we’re so excited for the week ahead!

Nancy Brennan-Jordan, Lucas Barreto, Rebecca Rodriguez, and Joelys Cuevas will be representing Let’s Share the Sun throughout the week, connecting, learning, and sharing the work happening in Puerto Rico. And on Thursday, you can find us at Climate & Energy Challenges and Solutions in Puerto Rico.

See you in NYC!
