Lamp Love: Light The Way For Education With This Lamp

Written by Elizabeth Mitchell

For every lamp purchased, one will be donated to a child in Pakistan or India!

Granted, you may not be churning out book reports or studying your butt off for exams anymore, reading is, or at least it should be, something we all do every day. So whether it’s 50 Shades of Grey or Vogue magazine, why not forgo the tangled wires and get your read on with a lamp that gives back and supports education instead? Not only do IKEA’s SUNNAN lamps convert sunlight to energy (meaning no costs for electricity), but for every unit sold, a child in need will also receive one in Pakistan or India.

Since the IKEA SUNNAN campaign began in June 2009, over 700,000 SUNNAN lamps have been sold and matched for donations to either UNICEF or Save the Children. With this donation, kids no longer have to struggle to read, write or draw. It’s your purchase that allows them the opportunity to continue their studies after sunset.

So what are you waiting for? Buy one today for just $19.99 and make a difference in the world!
