Your impact

Just one solar light will save a family around $70 per year,
enable an extra hour of study, improve health and avert an entire tonne of CO2.
Our customers tell us that their lights help them spend time together at night,
make them feel safer and improve their quality of life.

The power of light

A world of darkness is a world of ill-health and missed
opportunity. By contrast, a clean affordable source of light brings with it
hope, opportunity and dignity. It
encourages enterprise as people can work after dark and provides a platform for
families to develop and prosper.

Market builders

We mix business and charity to best meet the needs of those
living without access to electricity. We take the time to educate, instil trust
and create the conditions for a sustainable solar market. Once a market
emerges, as it has in Tanzania and Kenya, we can move on and help repeat this
success else where.
