Help the Visually Challenged Celebrate Diwali

Indian Association for the Blind (lAB) Madurai based NGO from South India, working at the grassroots level for the education, employment and rehabilitation of people with visually challenged. It was founded 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, employment and rehabilitation opportunities for socio-economically disempowered visually challenged children and adults with a special focus on those from rural background

From the warm glow of lights and joyous family gatherings to tempting treats and children’s laughter, the magic of Diwali is just around the corner. But Diwali is more than just a festival of light – it’s a time of year when we show our generosity to others less fortunate than ourselves. No wonder then that it’s one of the help we are doing to visually challenge.

This year, IAB has launched a campaign that acknowledges that more children can’t experience the magical sights of Diwali. However, with the help of our generous donors, and with early treatment and care, we can prevent blindness, restore sight and support those who are irreversibly blind to lead fulfilling, independent lives.

So, this Diwali, we invite you to spread your light by giving someone the gift of sight. Join the Festival of Sight and donate today. From all of us at Sight IAB, we extend our warmest wishes and blessings to you and your loved ones for a safe and happy holiday season!

Truthfully, we could not do this without you Global Giving! We at IAB very happy to share you that we benefited $647 with 6 donations. As a nonprofit community benefit organization, this important work is certainly only possible through the generosity of your support. Your donation can make a difference!  We and those we serve, sincerely appreciate your generosity
