Blind Children’s School
Blind children in the poorest regions of India face a bleak future. Without specialised schooling they remain a burden on their family and many become beggars.
The Amar Jyoti Trust supports a school for blind children in Ranchi province, a poor region of north-east India. The school takes in blind children aged 6 to 12 from local villages and teaches them essential skills such as reading and writing in Braille and mathematics. Many can then move on to normal schools and fulfil their potential in life.
The children are all very poor, some orphaned or abandoned, and so the school depends on charitable donations to buy vital equipment and to reach the neediest children.
