Bholu Ram can now study after dark!

52-100_6914 - Bholu Ram
Dear Mike,

Thank you for gifting a solar lantern to Bholu Ram’s family.

Bholu Ram is a bright 12 year old boy  living with his parents and sister in the village of Thali Ki Dani, near Jaipur, Rajastan. The village lacks even basic amenities like a dispensary, school, market, etc. Though the village is electrified, they get electricity for only a few hours every day, and rarely in the evening and night. This makes it very difficult for children to study after dark.

Bholu Ram travels 5 kms to the nearby village where there is a Government aided school. With your generous donation, Bholu Ram can now read after dark more easily than by candle or lamp light. His school work will definitely improve, and his eyes and his health will be safeguraded because the solar lantern is odorless and fume-less.
