BoGo Light

Two billion people living in the developing world rely on kerosene lanterns, candles, and single-use battery flashlights for light at night. Not only are these options expensive, dangerous, and harmful to the environment, they also negatively impact health, education, and security. Enter the BoGo light. It's a revolutionary solar-powered flashlight with the potential to transform all of Africa, with your help. For every BoGo light sold in the developed world, the company will send an identical light to an organization of your choice in Africa, Afghanistan, and a number of other countries in need. BoGo is an acronym for Buy One, Give One, and for only $25 each we think BoGo is an idea whose time has come.
