The Success story of Ravikiran                                                                                              

Ravikiran is 16 year old, he is Visually Impaired with Learning disability.  He came to our Institution at the age of 12 years.  He come from very poor family and he was neglected by his parents.

Therefore we admitted Ravikiran to our center after Medical Intervention we began his training with : self-help care, Pre-braille, Braille reading & writing, Orientation and Mobility training, social skills  music and Dance.  Due to the intensive & individual attention, he has come-up very well and developed self – confidence.

Then we began regular curriculum and he appeared for 10^th class public examination conducted by the Govt. of Karnataka in the month of April 2016 and he secured Distinction in the public exam and now he is persuading his higher studies.

We wish him all the success for his future.

We take this opportunity to thank in a special way to Global Giving and to all our donors who have contributed generously for the benefit of the children with disABILITIES.
