Give Light, Get Light
1.6 billion people around the world lack proper access to
electricity. Many of these people are forced to rely upon
dangerous, toxic, and expensive kerosene lanterns as their
primary source of light. Through our Give Light, Get Light
program, we partner with NGOs and non-profits all over the
world to distribute LuminAID lights to individuals who will greatly
benefit from a safe, rechargeable light source.
To-date, LuminAID has worked with charitable partners to put
more than 25,000 donated lights on-the-ground in projects
in more than 50 countries. In addition to disaster relief aid,
LuminAID lights have been used in schools, orphanages, and
hospitals in off-grid areas.
