Brentwood, TN, December 17, 2020—The National Lighting Bureau (NLB) is soliciting projects in need of good lighting. In line with their mission to promote High-Benefit Lighting®, the NLB would like to give back to communities that would benefit from better lighting.
The NLB is specifically looking for non-profit candidates who need to upgrade their lighting at no cost. With the help of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), the NLB will, in some cases, also coordinate the labor for the project.
NLB Chairman, Ray Kasmark stated, “The NLB members have the expertise and products to dramatically improve the quality of lighting. We are looking for applications where upgraded lighting can make a material difference in people’s lives.”
We are living in a time that is re-shaping how we live, work, and engage with one another, making it all the more important to give back to our communities and ensure that the changes we are seeing are positive ones. The NLB hopes to do their part by improving the lighting of buildings and public spaces that currently have bad lighting. Good lighting can improve productivity, safety, mood, well-being, and much more.

Recently, the NLB launched its Trusted Warranty Evaluation Program, which audits lighting manufacturing warranty programs and offers a certificate to companies that pass its criteria.
