Mann Deshi Bicycles spreading rays of hope

Dear Mann Deshi Supporters,

I would like to share the story of Megha-

Megha’s family’s financial condition was weak. She along with her family lived in a temporary hut.  Her parents used to together provide for the family by working as daily wage workers. Her family was living a happy life until her father suffered a medical condition and expired untimely. 

It has been 2 years since her father died. To hold the family together and support the family in this distressed situation her mother has started working as a daily wage laborer. Her mother earns a daily income of 2,000 Rs. Megha and her two sisters help their mother on their off days.

Mother, vandana aspires to educate her two daughters and her son and wants them to stand on their own feet someday.

Megha says, “Mann Deshi is helping her fulfil this dream. Our financial condition can barely support the education for the three of us and hence buying a bicycle to travel was unattainable. Our school is located in Mahsurne village, which is 3 to 4 km from the neighbouring village of Vagh. The cycle received from the Mann Deshi has had the family delighted and has made travel very easy. Now, I can reach the school on time every day and I can focus more of my energy on studies”. 

Thank you so much for all Global Giving supporters !

Regards,

Megha with her bicycle
