How does it feel when we walk into a pitch dark room where we don’t know the location of the switches? What do we do when we step in first into a cinema hall tracing our steps through the darkness?? We stumble, we are LOST totally, and some of us latch on to something solid next to us to get a grip of the darkness. Can you imagine there are people who live their entire life DOING this…. Latching,
holding, griping to objects or to people MOST of the time. Better side of this? They are the strongest people you will ever come across!! All of them are Hero’s / Heroin’s of their own story, I’d like to call them “Visually Challenged” otherwise known as The Blind. This page was born out of a burning urge to do something in the smallest way possible to Better the Situation these people face. As always, we chose the BEST place to start the deed. EDUCATION.
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime” such is the power of Education, IT Changes EVERYTHING!! What we do is a small but significant contribution in this area. To Read and Write is one of the DESPERATE needs of the VISUALLY CHALLENGED. We are asking you to do that FOR THEM with THEM. I for EYE Chennai aim to collaborate with like-minded Individuals who are willing to spend their precious time to write exams, materials, notes for the VISUALLY CHALLENGED KIDS in SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES across CHENNAI. This could be any Exams, Tests, Record Notes, Projects or Reports that these kids need to finish for their ACADEMICS in ANY LANGUAGE AS REQUIRED. We network WITH EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS that has such VISUALLY CHALLENGED students and address their "reading / writing" needs FOR FREE. This is purely a “SELF VOLUNTEERING PROJECT” WITH ZERO INTEREST IN ASKING / MAKING MONEY OR REMUNERATION OR REWARDS OF ANY NATURE. To any of you willing to contribute to this cause we request you to Join THIS PAGE and BE AVAILABLE in this Forum. WE will keep updating the NEEDS periodically here.
