Assistive Device support to 1000 Disabled Persons

Dear Donor & Well Wishers

Greetings!!

We hope and pray that you and your family members are safe and healthy. 

The second wave of Covid 19 was very devastating and dangerous in India. It was a very difficult time. Our organization was very much active to help people with disabilities and their family members in such difficult times. The people with disabilities had lost their livelihood due to Covid Curfew and were not able to meet two times meal. With the support of Donors, and friend like you we have started providing ration kits to such poor and needy families. We have distributed more than 34000 Ration Kits during the Covid 19 times, and 12000 Ration kits during the second wave of Covid 19. 

We have also started Oxygen Concentration Machine Banks for the Covid 19 affected families. The machines were available free of cost for use purposes. The family members of covid 19 affected person needed to submit a Covid 19 positive report, and Doctors' prescription. More than 50 families have availed of the services, and we are happy to share that all of them have been survived. 

We have not stopped our regular activities, and we have provided our services to the people who lost their limbs due to accidents or any diseases. They were called for assessment and measurement, and artificial limbs were manufactured accordingly. They were called for trial and training, and necessary changes were made after the trial and training hence they can use limbs very comforably. The limb was provided to them without any charges. 

During the reporting period, 08 people with disabilities were provided artificial limbs, 18 tricycles were provided to them. 

We are very grateful to you for your generous support that encourages us to reach out to more people who are in need. We appreciate the same.

We request you to continue your support in this mission, and also please share with your family friends about this cause that you support and promote. 

Thanking you

Dear Donors & Well Wishers,

Greetings!!

I hope this report finds you in Great Spirit and Health. I am very happy to share the progress report of Assistive Devices that supports 1000 people with disabilities. Covid 19 has affected all of us, but people with disabilities had a very tough time for their survival. The people with disabilities were out of livelihood, and many of them had sold their devices to manage their two times meal. 

Ramila is a polio survivor since the age of 5 years. She completed primary education, and could not study further due to high schools were located in other villages which were very far. She married persons with a disability, having two children. Her husband is a daily wage earner, and she looks after the family. Sudden lockdown and Covid 19 has affected her, and her family very badly. They did not have money for two times meal. She had sold her tricycle to a scrap vendor for money, and manage to provide a meal to her children. Blind People's Association came to know about her through local volunteer and provided a dry ration kit till her husband gets a livelihood. She could not move out as she did not have a tricycle. BPA has provided her tricycle and motivated her to do some business on a tricycle. With the support of donors like you and other donors we have distributed 226 tricycles, and 58 artificial limbs to people with disabilities during the period of 1.4.2020 to 11.3.2021. 

We have also distributed 337 smartphones to students with blindness and low vision who were out of the school due to covid 19 situation, and unable to access the education. These mobile phones helped them to connect with school teachers, access the study materials, and record the classroom session. 

We have planned to provide new assistive devices such as Refreshrable Braille, Braille Reading Machines to people with blindness and low vision in the next coming days. We request you continue your support, and spread a word with your friends, family members and others about this project. Your support encourages us to reach out to more people and serve to more phone. 

Thanking you
