On January 29, 2012, a group of about 80 mothers and daughters from the San Luis Rey Chapter of the National Charity League got together for a viewing of the White Rainbow film. The viewing was held in the Fallbrook County Library's new community room. During the movie the moms and daughters snacked on goodies brought in by the membership. After the movie, Linda Mandrayar answered questions about the movie and explained in more detail the plight of the widows in India. One of the questions frequently asked is "if a man's wife dies, is he also considered 'bad luck' and subjected to the same societal ostricization?" Well, the answer is no!
After the movie and question and answer, the girls and moms got to shop at the White Rainbow Collection mobile boutique! A great way to support the widows through purchasing of merchandise with monies going back to India in the form of vocational training and payment for work such as making the beaded necklaces.
