Hima, a mother of five in Manani Bhil, Tharparkar, spent hours each day fetching water while her husband worked in agriculture.
Following Human Appeal’s intervention through solar-powered home gardening and water projects, she received training, tools, and seeds for a home garden.
Today, her small plot produces tomatoes, eggplants, and squash, providing nutritious food for her children and additional income from surplus sales.
Hima says: “Now we eat what we grow, and sometimes we sell vegetables to buy what we need. My time is spent serving my children instead of searching for water.”
