In all of Asia, 750 million people lack access to lights. Children use kerosene oil to study, which deteriorates their health. The Korea Green Foundation Asia is serious about the issues and has begun a campaign that targets to get 10,000 solar lamp sets donated to families in Indonesia, Nepal and Laos and nearby regions.
KGF is continuously working to better the livelihood of impoverished people in Asia.
