Our Founding Story
In 2004, Peace Corps volunteer Sam Goldman witnessed a life-changing event when his neighbor in Benin, Africa, suffered severe burns from a kerosene lamp accident. This tragedy sparked a realization in Sam: there had to be safer, more reliable ways to power homes and businesses—especially in the developing world. That realization led to the creation of d.light, with a mission to provide safe, affordable, and sustainable energy solutions for all.
