Solar Lantern lights up Mangu Bai’s life!

Mangu Bai with family

Thanks to the generous donation of a Solar Lantern by Daniel and the efforts of The Restoring Force, Mangu Bai, a widow in Munj Ka Pura, a village in Rajasthan, India can breathe a sigh of relief. She lives with her ailing father and 4 children, 3 daughters and one son. She lost her husband a few years ago, and since then has to shoulder the entire responsibility of her family.

She works in the fields from morning till dawn and hurries up to do the cooking before sunset as her village does not have electricity. Her children do not go to school as she cannot afford the expenses. With the gift of the solar lantern she can now save 10-15% of her monthly earnings which she earlier used to spend on burning oil lamps. She is now thinking of sending her children to school!
