So where does your money go?

• 61% of all funds will go directly to lighting up the homes of Waini and her thre neighboring families.
• The remaining 39% is used for project organization and logistics.
• We have done this project 21 times before. Trust me, your money will be well spent.

Together with more than 40 volunteers we'll drive deep into the jungle and the install solar powered lights for Waini and his neighbors. You can be one those volunteers, just pick the right perk.

With your donation they will receive

Street lights & portable lanterns for 4 houses

The story of Waini's family

The only concern of this mother of three is the health of her sick husband and how to send their kids to school. Since she doesn't have the money to pay for education, she hopes the kids can study when she finally has lights inside her house.

Imagine having to light up your home with candles and sometimes even bonfires. You can’t go outside because the risk of running into dangerous, wild animals is real. And studying at night is nearly impossible. 

This is how Waini's family and her neigbors in Kampung Teras live their daily lives. No electricity. Ever.

Having light at night is a matter of life or death to them. It makes going out at night safe, helps the kids to study, and brings the people closer together. Join us in our mission to give them light at night, so they won’t have to sit in darkness during Christmas, or ever again.

#givelight to Waini's family

Liter of Light Malaysia is raising funds to light up the home of every family in Kampung Teras. So pick on of the special crafted perks and #givelight to Waini's family and her neigbors, so they can spend Christmas like you and I do. Don't they deserve that? 

Here's a map of Kampung Teras

Below you can see a detailed map of the houses in Kampung Teras and the lights we'll be installing to light them up. Help to make it happen!

We have done this project 21 times before. We know what we're doing. 

The only risk is:

• If we don't hit our funding goal, we will have to light up Rizan's home next year, when we find another sponsor. 

What happens to any excess funding?

• Any excess funding for this campaign will contribute to the next family in this build. If all the families are funded and there is still excess funding, then those funds will be allocated to another build in which we'lll light up another village with solar powered lights.
