Rani, who tragically lost her son in a short-circuit accident, had to shut down her eatery due to deteriorating vision and a cataract in her left eye. Upon discovering a health check-up camp organized by MFV, supported by RenewSys, she recognized the need for cataract surgery. The procedure took place at MFV's Sankara Nethralaya hospital in Chennai. Now, with restored vision, she exudes confidence and plans to reopen her eatery.

This is such a heartwarming and impactful initiative! The partnership between RenewSys and MFV to bring light to rural India is a fantastic example of how renewable energy can transform lives. Access to reliable lighting can significantly improve the quality of life in rural communities, enabling children to study after dark, increasing safety, and supporting local businesses It's inspiring to see companies stepping up to make a positive difference and addressing energy poverty through sustainable solutions. Kudos to leon kennedy jacket and MFV for their commitment to social responsibility and for driving change where it’s needed most.
