Earth Hour Philippines to Give the Gift of Light Organizers ask for help in deploying solar lamps

Polar lamps to light up off-grid island communities will help children study better at night, says Earth Hour organizers in the Philippines. 

Around 15 million Filipinos lack regular access to electricity, relying instead on flammable and expensive kerosene lamps to illuminate their homes. “I must earn an additional PHP150 (USD3.5) each month to buy half-a-gallon of kerosene,” says Joys Dominguez, a 35-year old fisherman from the island community of Beton in Northern Palawan. “I have four small kids. If they tip over just one of the lamps, our wooden hut can burn down. I need safe lights for my family.”
