Little Sun brings solar light to school children worldwide and provides the tools and knowledge that empower them to shape a sustainable future for themselves and for the planet.
Educating young people about the importance of solar energy plays a critical role in creating a more sustainable future for our planet.
Without energy, children cannot study after dark, compromising their education. Without education, they have fewer prospects.
Solar energy can help children get a better education, and education about solar makes children aware of smart energy solutions, giving them the tools to make a better future for themselves, and for our planet.
We believe teaching kids about solar and sustainability will translate into an acceleration of green policies, sustainability research, and innovative tech solutions in the future.
Powering HeartS. Powering Minds.
