About
LuminAID
Andrea Sreshta and Anna Stork invented
LuminAID’s solar lighting technology just
after the Haiti earthquake in 2010. They were
inspired to design a simple, rechargeable light
that could be cost-effectively distributed after
disasters and have been selling LuminAID
lights for the past 7 years. LuminAID’s solar
inflatable light technology is patented in the
U.S., with additional patent applications pending
worldwide. LuminAID is currently based in
Chicago. The company has won numerous
awards and has been invited to the White
House on several occasions.
LuminAID lights have been used in more
than 100 countries in the world. LuminAID
has distributed tens of thousands of lights
after some of the world’s most recent and
widespread disasters including Hurricane Sandy,
Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, and the
Nepal Earthquake.
LuminAID is a woman-owned small business.
