Fix the image of a dandelion in your imagination. How many of us have ever taken the time to witness the miracle of a dandelion? Now imagine the bare head of the flower after the winds have blown all the seeds away. It is indeed a grim image. Having stripped the flower of its crown, it would be easy to believe the winds have won. But Nature is a model of resourcefulness and within a very short time, that one flower, tossed by the winds, will transform into millions of shining orbs of yellow; literally creating a field of gold. We, as creatures of that same nature, have the capacity to do likewise. After Hurricane Maria made landfall in September 2017, Keeper of the Mountains sat in utter shock as the news poured in of how many Puerto Ricans were suffering without power and clean water. We brainstormed solutions of how to help our friends and family in Puerto Rico, and decided to devote our time and energy into being the change we wish to see in the world. Thus, the Dandelion Project was born. The Dandelion Project is our way forward in creating sustainable energy alternatives in low-income or underserved communities.
The Dandelion Project is a dream for so many of us. For far too long, underserved and low-income working communities have struggled at the hands of power bills, power coverage, and they continue to suffer due to the devastating environmental effects from Mountain Top mining, fracking, and climate change. This project will place the literal power back into the hands of the people. Your donation will help us: install solar panel systems, train locals to maintain these sustainable energy systems, and provide a quality of life that every single person deserves. If you are interested in being a sponsor for this project in Puerto Rico, please contact us via email at keeperofthemountainsfoundation@gmail.com or by phone 304-205-0920 for more information. Our donation page can be found here! Any amount helps us towards our goal. Thank you! Together we can make a difference!
