OneLamp
Opio knows first hand what it means not to have access to electricity. He comes from rural Uganda where most families use kerosene lamps for lighting their homes and letting their kids study for school.
Having experienced the health and safety risks of these lamps, Opio founded OneLamp, a social enterprise that provides safe and affordable solar light bulbs to rural Ugandan families. Next to health and safety benefits, he especially aims to increase the school performance of 7.5m children attending rural schools in Uganda who will be able to study better and longer with the help of his lamps.
