The Problem
When the sun goes down,
learning stops.
For hundreds of millions of students, the end of daylight means the end of studying. Families depend on kerosene lamps: expensive, toxic, and barely bright enough to read by. When students can't study at night, they fall behind. Many leave school early. Reliable, affordable light gives them back their evenings and with them, a real future.

Our Mission
Education should never depend on whether the sun is up.
We are designing an ultra-affordable solar study light and building the partnerships needed to put it in students' hands. Not in five years, but as soon as possible.

Partnered Distribution
We work with Unite to Light, a proven nonprofit that has distributed 150,000+ lights across 80+ countries. They have the reach; we raise the funding.
Built to Last
A chapter model means SolarScholars outlasts any individual founder. We are building a movement, not a project.
Transparency
Honest about
where we are.
We are student-led and early stage. We will always be transparent about our status, progress, and where your support goes.
