Mangi Devi is delighted to have a solar lantern!

Dear Peter,

Mangi Devi is almost 100 years old and lives with her son Babu Lal, daughter-in-law Phula Devi and three grandchildren in Beed Pinarpur a village near Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. This tiny village has only 17 families with around 140 people and Mangi Devi is the oldest among them. The families seek her advice when children fall ill and she usually has a remedy for all the small illness.

Thanks to your wonderful gift of a solar lantern, Mangi Devi is delighted to have light in her home for the first time. She has lived all her life without electricity and was excited to have a fumeless and odourless light which she could carry along with her. She no longer has to worry about the wind blowing away the light or refilling the lamp with oil.

Thank you, Peter, for this gift that has brought light to Mangi Devi’s life!
