Solar Lantern helps to keep the bugs and snakes at bay

Indra-Babulal-P1030104
Dear Steven,

Thank you for gifting a solar lantern to Indira and Babulal.

Indira lives with her husband, Babulal, and their five children, Ramduli, Sarjeet, Sajitha, Deepa, Manjeet and Anjeet in Kanjra Ki Dhani a small hamlet near the village of Chaku with is around 55 kms from the city of Jaipur in Rajasthan. Her husband is the only earning member in the family and he works as a labourer in the nearby village.

There are many snakes in the village where they live, which often eat hens. Before they got the solar lantern, they used to be worried about being bitten by bugs or snakes. Since they didn’t have electricity in the village, they also needed to go to the nearest village and spend Rs. 5 everytime they wanted to charge their mobile phones- now this can be done using the solar lantern.

Thank you for transforming their life.
