Support a widowed woman's life for Diwali

Meet Rohini, a widow of Radha Kunda in Vrindavan.
During this most festive and auspicious time, receive unending prosperity and good fortune by extending a gesture of divine giving to Rohini and widowed mothers like her, who maintain Sri Radha Kunda and Shyama Kunda every day - while caring for the women in their widowed community.

Women like Rohini have been shunned by society and left to navigate their grief entirely alone. Despite extreme hardships and social stigmas against them, these women embody strength and grace under challenging circumstances. Rohini was married as a young girl without the opportunity for an education. After the sudden and unexpected death of her beloved husband, shortly following the death of her only daughter, she was left without care or support in her community.

Instead, like many widowed women of India, she traveled thousands of miles alone to reach Vrindavan with the hope of dignity, sanctuary, and support.

How Your Monthly Gift Makes a Difference

By becoming a monthly donor, you honor motherhood in its most universal form and catalyze profound changes in the lives of these deserving women by giving them a second chance at life within a community that supports and empowers them. Today Rohini has become part of our RadhaSeva community to empower widowed women and has dedicated her life to cooking for over 200 widowed women in her community and caring for Vrindavan's most treasured place, Radha Kunda. By sponsoring Rohini and women like her, you are helping transform an entire community of mothers who have otherwise been left without care.
