Litro de Luz Brasil is a brand that is making a positive impact in communities across all five regions of Brazil. They bring solar-powered lighting solutions to communities that do not have access to electricity or adequate street lighting. Their solutions are simple yet effective, using materials like PET bottles, PVC pipes, solar panels, batteries, and LEDs.

The brand was inspired by the My Shelter Foundation's low-cost sustainable projects and Alfredo Moser's innovative lamp design. Moser's lamp, which originated in Brazil during the 2001 energy crisis, became the inspiration for the Litro de Luz movement founded by Filipino Illac Diaz in 2012. Since its inception in Brazil in 2014, Litro de Luz has directly impacted the lives of over 17,000 Brazilians across 120 communities through 3,000 lighting solutions.

Litro de Luz Brasil is driven by a mission to improve people's quality of life through sustainable lighting solutions and empower agents of change. They envision a future where access to lighting transcends socioeconomic and geographic barriers. The brand values commitment, sustainability, professionalism, trust, and empathy.

Through their community engagement approach, Litro de Luz actively involves the residents in the installation process, promoting empowerment and interaction. They also have an ambassador network composed of trained community members who represent Litro de Luz and promote the movement's goals. While Litro de Luz continues to make a significant impact, they also strive for a future where access to public lighting and proper electricity is the norm, reducing the need for their lighting solutions.

The brand has received recognition from the United Nations for their focus on solar lighting and carbon emission reduction. They have also been featured in various media outlets, accumulating over 205 million views. Litro de Luz has received prestigious awards, including the Zayed Future Energy Prize and the St Andrews Prize, which enabled their work in the Amazon.

They are driven by a strong executive board and guided by a dedicated board of directors and fiscal council. To support their mission or learn more about Litro de Luz Brasil, visit their website and get involved
