Assistive Devices for Visually challenged students

By Pooja | Communication Manager

We, lndian Association for the Blind (lAB), are based in South India and are a well-known non-profit organization working to provide education, employment, training and rehabilitation for the visually challenged from rural areas. Late Mr. S.M.A.Jinnah, the visually challenged activist and a group of like-minded visually challenged people founded IAB in 1985. Until today,we have benefited more than 11200 youths who have now proved to be productive members of society.

This project in total has raised $ 585 till date. This amount has helped us provide assistive devices such as angel players, Netbooks and headphones to our beneficiaries. As the name suggests, these devices will assist them in their daily lives by offering the best possible help of operating all devices with ease.

In this fast-paced world, everything around us is rapidly changing and it requires each and everyone of us to be in tune with the flow. This being the case, at IAB, we aim to provide our visually challenged students with the right devices which will help make their lives easier and those that help them be on par with the sighted individuals.
