CFL - Compact Fluorescent Lamp
 

Unfortunately due to a loss of our bulb distributor, the Bright Lights Program is currently on hold. Please check back at a later date for new information, and please pardon the inconvenience.

Bright Lights for a Bright Future is an environmental-based education program that promotes the use of energy-efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFL’s) through an easy to implement Energy Saver Fundraiser.


Endorsed by the U.S. Department of Energy, the program has a threefold advantage: (1) Gives kids an opportunity to raise money for their school or organization, (2) Increases energy conservation awareness among teachers, students and their communities, and (3) Makes a measurable environmental difference.

Bright Lights for a Bright Future is changing the world through its commitment to prevent 100 million pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2), a major contributor to climate change, from entering the atmosphere. Students in almost 300 schools across the nation have already contributed to this goal by saving over 20 million pounds of CO2 emissions by selling CFL’s!

How Does it Work?
The Bright Lights Energy Saver Fundraiser is easy! There are no bulbs to carry while selling, no advance purchase agreements, and shipping and handling are included in the price. For every ENERGY STARSM CFL bulb sold, students raise $3.00 for their school or organization.
