Indian Association for the Blind (lAB) Madurai based NGO from South India, working at the grassroots level for the education, employment and rehabilitation of people with visually challenged. It was founded in 1985 by visually challenged activist Late Mr. S.M.A.Jinnah and a group of like-minded visually challenged people to provide comprehensive education, employment and rehabilitation opportunities for socio-economically disempowered visually challenged children and adults with a special focus on those from rural background.
Through this project, we aim to benefit more than 4000 students.Each student will be able to have their own study material and gain access to their favourite reads. Total of $7,499 has been raised through this drive. Your philanthropic interest in making them having their own braille books is deeply appreciable.
Still there is inadequate funds for production and distribution of Braille Text books to our visually Challenged School Students. Currently we are circulating only minimum number of copies of a text book in a class room. So, we look forward in raising more for this cause. As always, we, along with GlobalGiving, will do our best in reaching out to generous donors across the Globe and will strive to bring happiness on the face of each of our beneficiaries.
