Appeal
India is the home of 320,000 children with blindness, and according to NCERT (National Council of Educational Research and Training), 70.84% of them do not go to school. Most of these blind children live in rural areas where they do not have access to quality education and rehabilitation due to poverty and lack of resources. Some of the critical challenges include lack or paucity of:
Rehabilitation support for blind children
Special schools in rural areas
Special teachers in government schools
Knowledge of blindness among parents
Inclusive infrastructure in schools
Availability of study books in Braille
Ek Kadam Aur Foundation for Education and Health is seeking your support to expand our "Arunodaya (Sunrise) for Blind Children Program." Your generous contribution will help us reach more visually impaired children from underprivileged backgrounds and provide them with the tools they need to access quality education.
How Your Donation Will Be Used:
Training and Salaries for Special Educators
Educational Materials and Assistive Devices
Home Visit Program Expansion
Advocacy and Community Awareness
Our goal is to expand our reach from the current 7 states to 10 states in the next year, doubling the number of children we serve. With your support, we can give these children the opportunity to learn, grow, and reach their full potential.
Every contribution, regardless of size, makes a significant impact. Together, we can take one more step (Ek Kadam Aur) towards an inclusive society where every child has access to education.
