Madan Lal can charge his mobile phone!

99-100_6961-Madan Lal
Dear Leo,

Madan Lal lives with his wife and son in Thali Ki Dani a village near the city of Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. Madan Lal works as a labourer in the nearby town of Chaksu. Their monthly income is a meager USD 60. The family was thrilled to receive the Solar Lantern as they had no electricity in their house. Thanks to the generous donation from Leo he hopes to save money spent on kerosene lamps. He can now charge his mobile phone from the Solar Lantern as the Lantern has this capability. Earlier he used to travel 5 kms and pay Rs. 5 to charge his phone. With the help of the phone he can check whether or not there is available work before travelling to the nearby towns.
