Project Indiana
Project Indiana is a philanthropic trip led by the electric cooperatives of Indiana to the rural communities of Guatemala.
Electrifying Remote Guatemalan Villages
About Project Indiana
We take electricity for granted. But many families in remote Guatemalan villages live the simplest of lives. They endure extreme hardships. Through Project Indiana, Indiana’s electric cooperatives are empowering global communities one village at a time.
Since 2012, Indiana electric co-ops have banded together to electrify remote villages in Guatemala. In the end, it’s not only light that Project Indiana brings — it’s life. Hope. Progress. Opportunities. And it brings full circle what happened in the 1930s here in rural Indiana — people working together to light a community, one pole at a time, to make a better life.

The bottom line? Financial contributions are critical to Project Indiana. Indiana’s 38 electric cooperatives cover all of the program administrative costs, enabling all contributions to go directly to the mission of electrifying and supporting these communities. All donations are tax-deductible and accepted by the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association International Foundation, and are earmarked specifically for Indiana projects.
