OGIEL Solar Suitcase Fund

The Office of Global Initiatives and Experiential Learning (OGIEL) at Rutgers University-Newark has deployed 47 We Share Solar Suitcases in 7 countries in the Global South. These projects have provided access to sustainable energy and improved educational outcomes in schools and the quality of healthcare in local clinics.

In addition to sustainable development, OGIEL is fundraising for internships to allow students to contribute tangible, long-term change in communities in the U.S. and the Global South.
