As part of a societal change measure aimed at empowering women, Avashya Foundation in collaboration with Light of Life Trust, one of its NGO partners and Nilkamal, a Mumbai-based plastic products manufacturing company distributed water wheels to 150 women farmers at the Jeevan Asha Community Centre at Tiware, Karjat.

The distribution of the water wheels was envisioned as a unique gifting initiative. Large parts of Maharashtra are reeling under a severe water shortage. Women often have to travel long distances for getting water, carrying heavy water utensils of more than 22 litres on their head. This not only affects their physical health but can also lead to long-term problems like damage to the spinal cord and severe neck pain.
