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, training, employment and rehabilitation facilities for socio-economically disempowered visually challenged children, youths and adults with a special focus on those from rural areas.
This project has helped us raise $94.39. This is thanks to the 10 donations we have received from philanthropists around the globe. It is their constant support and encouragement that keeps us going. The funds received through this project will be useful for our visually challenged beneficiaries in giving wings to their dream of pursuing Master's degree, which will in turn help them reach great heights in life.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to GlobalGiving for providing us with this wonderful platform which helps us connect with donors from all around the world. Timely help from generous donors for this project will truly help in empowering not only them but also their future generations to come. It will be beneficial to them in learning the art of leading a dignified life and becoming productive members of society.
