Shiv Raj Singh and his family are free of toxic fumes

115-100_6977-Shiv raj Singh
Dear Lisa,

Shiv Raj Singh’s family had to rely on kerosene wick lamps because their village, Dadanpura, does not have electricity like several other villages in remote Rajasthan, India. The kerosene lamps are neither cost effective nor environment-friendly — the fumes from the kerosene lamps affect the eyes and lungs. The women in the family are the worst affected as they have to cook food under its light.

Now thanks to the wonderful gift of a solar lantern Shiv Raj Singh and his entire family can breathe easy. His wife can now cook dinner after sunset and his kids can study in the evenings. Thank you, Lisa, for your support!
