Dear Supporter,
Thanks to your unwavering generosity, the Sighted Hands Center in Idlib continues to be a sanctuary of hope and empowerment for the blind and visually impaired in northern Syria.
Every day, individuals with visual impairments walk through the doors of the Sighted Hands Center and step into a world where their abilities, not their disabilities, define them. With your support, they’re mastering Braille, learning life-changing skills, and creating exquisite handmade crafts—from delicate textiles to intricate straw baskets. These skills not only provide a sense of purpose but also a source of income, independence, and pride.
One of our attendees recently shared: “Before joining the center, I felt invisible. Now, I feel seen and valued. I know I can contribute to my community.” This transformation is only possible because of you.
But there’s so much more to do. Many more individuals in northern Syria are waiting for their chance to step out of the shadows and into the light. Your continued support will help us reach them, expand our programs, and ensure every visually impaired person has access to the tools and opportunities they deserve.
Will you join us again in making the impossible, possible?
Thank you for believing in their potential and for being a beacon of hope in their lives. Together, we are building a brighter, more inclusive future.
With heartfelt gratitude,
