Thanks to the support from GlobalGiving.This fund has helped us by providing assistive devices to our beneficiaries. The assistive devices have helped to increase the student participation and give independence. Assistive device helps to enables visually impaired students to access and store the information libraries around the world and internet.

Assistive technology is an umbrella term for assistive products and their related systems and services. Assistive technology enables and promotes the inclusion, participation and engagement of persons with disabilities, ageing populations and people living with chronic conditions in the family, community and all areas of society, including the political, economic and social spheres.

This being the case, at IAB, we aim to provide our visually challenged students with the right devices which will help make their lives easier and those that help them be on devices with the sighted individuals. We are glad to be a part of GlobalGiving, as providing assistive devices to our students has been a lot easier by connecting with generous donors.

Today, technology plays a vital role in the enrichment of visually disabled people’s life. Technology help people with disabilities stay connected and interact with others despite disability.

In Today’s world, each & everything becomes technology oriented. There are many Technological devices which can used for recording, reading, conversion (Speech- Text & vice versa). It saves their time and also makes them independent without depending on sighted people.

Using technology kit for a marginalized people is a day dream and most pressing need in today’s life. Though Education has started to move towards the virtual mode/ platform, knowledge & devices are much needed for the children to carry out their education.

We and those we serve sincerely appreciate your generosity and thankful for the contribution you have done.

The drive has helped provide assistive devices to numerous Visually Challenged students over the years, rising close to $7,397 since its inception, thanks to generous individuals and residents on behalf of them. Technology and philanthropy joined hands here. Through this, we can make them to get their own memory cards and headphones. Now our children are capable of working with laptops with the help of talk-back softwares. They can now search and get knowledge of everything through web surfing.
 During this COVID times, as education system has moved towards the virtual phase, technology plays a important role. Our visually challenged students too undergone the virtual classes and live sessions etc.. 
Once again, we want to thank the philanthropist for their contributions and also the GlobalGiving who paved the way for us to utilize their donations from all over the world. We look forward to raising more for this cause.
