Millions of homes in the world are without electricity and rely on kerosene lamps for light. These lamps are a constant financial burden for low-income families, a potential fire hazard, and can cause respiratory problems.

What are creative, innovative people doing about this? How do they supply these people with an alternative?

Join us this Friday June 30th at Fresh Start as we invite Arlin Tao, Business Operations Director of IDEO, to share her story of when she worked with d.light on its A1 solar light product launch, designing, distributing and scaling the A1 solar light project.

Everyday Arlin tackles the responsibility of empowering businesses to utilize their capabilities in order to create a positive impact on people's lives and she has extensive experience with this.

She has worked with a variety of big-name companies such as Nike and Johnson & Johnson, and she is passionate about developing purposeful businesses and creating new ways to build them.

If you are interested in learning from and directing questions to this socially-minded, business-savvy professional and hearing the A1 solar light's story, please come join us this Friday at Fresh Start Rotary Club of Shanghai.
