History & Development
LuminAID light was conceived Anna Stork and Andrea Sreshta were students at architecture school in New York City. A devastating earthquake had just struck Haiti, and they asked themselves what they could design to help survivors of such an event.
They designed an inflatable solar lantern that could pack flat to be cost-effectively distributed after disasters. For ten years, they've worked with humanitarian partners across the world to send LuminAID lights to those who need them most.
In February 2015, LuminAID's founders Anna and Andrea pitched the "Sharks" on ABC's Shark Tank. To their surprise, they received offers from all 5 Sharks, and walked out of the tank with an investment deal from billionaire Mark Cuban, who became LuminAID's first investor.
