This project creates an opportunity for the visually challenged children to be self-sustainable in their life through education, vocational training, and other basic life skills.
There are more than 1000 blinds children in the villages of Bidar & surrounding district under the age group of 5 to 16. It is estimated that, every one in three villages has one blind child without proper care, Rehabilitation, Education & other life skill. Although, the Govt of India has setup special schools in select district, but that is not serving the purpose due to ineffective implementation system and high corruption and also, these schools are located far from the native districts.
