More Inspiration

This one is from my roots in Malawi - currently the world's poorest country. It's the story of a 14-year old Malawian, William Kamkwamba, whose family couldn't afford to keep him in school. But then he proceeded to design and build a windmill from a picture in library book, to provide his village with electricity.

As you do.
