OUR NEEDS:

At present, there is a strong need of volunteer staff both at home and abroad to practically enhance the realization of the noble goals of this organization.

The organization is also in desperate need of a building to house the Head Office from which the activities of local and state chapters can be properly coordinated.

Besides the need of funding of seminars and workshops on public awareness and sensitization programs for members, materials like writing frames, Braillers, mobility canes, Braille Paper, Braille Press and even thermoform machines are highly needed.

We are also in dare need of Braille Computers and Micro financing of some indigent members.
