We’re delighted to have Dubai based Studio Kinza on board as a corporate supporter. Since 2022, they have been supporting SolarAid raising awareness of our work with customers during candle making workshops and events. Tahrima Mustafa writes about our partnership and how important a shared mission and corporate social responsibility is.
At Studio Kinza, we believe in the power of business to drive positive change. That’s why we’ve partnered with SolarAid, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing clean, affordable solar lights to communities in sub-Saharan Africa. For every candle sold and workshop conducted, we donate $1 USD to SolarAid. This commitment allows us to directly contribute to SolarAid’s mission, helping to bring light to places where reliable electricity remains a distant dream.
Our decision to support SolarAid is rooted in our deep-seated values and mission at Studio Kinza. We firmly believe in the transformative power of sustainable energy. Access to electricity isn’t just a convenience; it’s a fundamental human right that can enhance quality of life, education, and economic opportunities, especially in underserved regions. SolarAid’s focus on providing clean, affordable solar lights aligns perfectly with this belief, making it an ideal partner for us.
When our clients purchase our candles or attend our workshops, they aren’t just enhancing their own living spaces with our beautifully crafted products. They’re also making a tangible impact by lighting up homes in distant communities. This dual impact resonates deeply with us—it’s about more than business; it’s about embodying our purpose as a company that cares about people and the planet.
