Help Light Up People's Lives

For only $50 you can help supply people in developing countries with a solar powered flashlight. SunNight Solar is having a “Buy one, Give one” free program. For every flashlight you buy, they will send one to impoverished countries. The reason why this is important is because most families can’t afford electricity, so they have to use kerosene lanterns and candles which are dangerous. The company was started by an ex-marine who spend a lot of time in Africa and saw how life could be improved with a solar powered flashlight.
