This project helps provide nutritious food to the visually challenged children from rural areas who are underweight and malnourished. Your timely support will help in providing healthy meals to 300 visually challenged children and aid in their healthy growth. Indian Association for the Blind (IAB) was established in 1985 by visually challenged activist Late Mr. S.M.A.Jinnah to provide education, employment and rehabilitation for the visually challenged, especially from rural backgrounds.
Challenge
Most of the visually challenged children are from rural areas and their parents are not financially sound. Some are also ignorant of the right diet that should be provided to these children right from their initial stages of birth. So they provide very poor quality food that lacks nutritional value. This makes these children malnourished, underweight, growth stunted and unhealthy. Due to their poor health conditions, they are unable to concentrate on their studies.
Long-Term Impact
This project will be very useful to all our visually challenged children.It will help in providing them with the required physical strength to face their future.It will certainly boost their confidence level and keep them away from diseases.This way, they will understand the importance of a balanced diet and will promote healthy eating habits in their future generations.Also,it is a great opportunity for you to interact with these children and create evergreen memories on your special day.
