M. Toqeer, a deaf and blind father in Lahore, lives in deep poverty with his wife and 13-year-old son. Unable to work or access government support, he depends on neighbors' charity. His young son earns just PKR 500/day stitching shoes to support the family, which risks the child's health, education, and future. This project targets vulnerable families facing compounded disability and child labor.
This project will provide monthly financial aid for food and rent, educational support for the child, and skill-based income opportunities for the mother. It will also explore assistive technology and home-care tools for Toqeer, helping reduce dependence and restoring dignity. Through stable aid, the family can focus on long-term recovery and empowerment.
With sustained support, Toqeer's family can break free from the poverty trap. The child will return to school, the mother can earn from home, and Toqeer will gain better care through accessible tools. This can serve as a model for helping deaf-blind persons and reduce child labor in similar cases, creating a ripple effect of empowerment in marginalized communities.
