Let's light the future together
Welumen8
Our MISSION
WeLumen8 gives children in developing countries the opportunity to study by providing light to them. Because of limited access to electricity, these children are currently unable to read and study when it is dark. Our mission is to overcome this with an environmentally sustainable, eco-friendly and efficient solution. We want to improve the quantity and quality of studying both in houses and in classrooms, making it possible in more parts of the day.
Many children in the developing world are often forced to seek alternative light sources outside their houses, sometimes at gas stations or under street lamps, in order to have enough light to complete their schoolwork. Families that do have energy at home often rely on kerosene lamps to provide light, a practice that is expensive, poses serious health risks.
