Healthy food for 300 visually challenged children

Indian Association for the Blind (lAB) based in Madurai, South India, is a renowned not-for-profit organization working at the grassroots level for the education, employment and rehabilitation of people with visual challenges. It was established 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.

Food is the most vital thing for the survival of human being. For a student, all the right diets should be given as it helps them to grow mentally and physically. Till now we have raised $9737 through this drive. Thanks to GlobalGiving and its donors for the generous gift.

As students need to eat healthy foods to achieve academic success, to experience proper growth and development and to prevent chronic disease, the philanthropists of GlobalGiving paved the way for us to provide such a healthy food to our students. A good lunch benefits a student by giving him the energy to remain alert during class time, so that our students can perform well in their exams.

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. Once again we extend our heartfelt gratitude for the generous support rendered by GlobalGiving and the philanthropists of GlobalGiving which makes it possible for our organization to exist and to make the community a great place to live in. We look forward to raising more for this cause.
