Fundraise at school
We want everyone to get involved – teachers, parents and students – so that together, we can make sure that everyone has access to light.
There are loads of ways to raise funds at school.

A dream within reach
Before she had access to light in the evening, Fabriola was struggling at school. But everything changed at the flick of a switch.

Future educators
At 7 pm each night, Derrick sits down to study for an hour and a half, with the solar light he has borrowed from the recently opened school Light Library. Since he got access to a solar light, he's become one of the best students in his school. Derrick now dreams of becoming a teacher.
