About the Organisation

Established in 2006, The organisation is a UK-based, international charity dedicated to bringing solar power to rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa.

Currently, there are nearly 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa living without electricity. When the sun goes down at night, families are reliant on dangerous and expensive forms of lighting, such as candles and kerosene lamps.

The organisation is pioneering innovative enterprise programmes that tackle poverty and climate change by providing access to clean, safe solar light to homes, clinics, and schools. To date, they have distributed over 2.3 million lights, directly impacting over 11 million people. Families across the continent can now rely on safe, renewable solar lights as the sun sets, but there is still a long way to go to achieve universal access to energy, and we are stepping up our efforts to ensure communities otherwise left behind will have access to solar energy, creating instant sustainable change for people and the planet.
