I recently purchased one of their "one for one" backpacks. It's of excellent quality, and the founder, Salima, truly cares about the company's mission.

Forbes did a whole feature on this product: http://www.forbes.com/sites/viviennedecker/2016/09/09/the-23...

The founder Salima has applied to YC in the past, so I'm sure she'll be here answering questions

Very cool mission. Education is truly the light for young minds, so it's fantastic that Soular has a literal way to help fuel their learning. Inspiring - kudos!
