ADD YOUR LIGHT PRODUCTS INC. supplies the high quality LED lamps and voltage regulators used by Add Your Light Charitable Foundation & other NGOs for humanitarian projects.
After seven years of work to develop reliable and robust lighting systems that would not fail in the field, we were able to offer these systems to other organizations working in less developed countries.
The company, Add Your Light Products Inc., separated from the charity in 2009 in order to protect the intellectual property, and to keep the charity's accounting distinct from the company's accounting. In order to avoid a conflict of interest, the company has an agreement with Add Your Light Charitable Foundation to provide lamps and voltage regulators at cost (ie. no profit).

Click on this link for a 4 minute video of the LED/solar project in Cap Rouge, Haiti. This video is lovely. However, it was not done by Add Your Light and it contains some errors. For example, the lamps were not developed at the University of Calgary, the voltage regulators protect the battery, not the lamps (the lamps do not need protection), and the systems cost less than $200 CAD, even at low volumes. Please go to the company website "Add Your Light Products Inc." for information on pricing.
A Spanish language brochure is used to help Dominican families calculate the cost of candles & kerosene gas lamps. This helps them see how possible it is to purchase an LED lighting system on credit. Our small loans program is helping many families purchase a system & have clean, safe light for the first time.
