Disability & Imparment

​Empowering the Disability and Visually Impaired Community in India

India is home to over 26 million persons with disabilities, including more than 5 million people with visual impairments. Despite their resilience and capabilities, many continue to face deep-rooted social stigma, limited access to education, healthcare, employment, and public infrastructure. At our core, we believe that disability is not inability—and that everyone deserves the right to live a life of dignity, independence, and opportunity
Disability is not a limitation—it’s a diverse human experience. By enabling equal access and breaking down systemic barriers, we not only uplift individuals, but also enrich society as a whole. Every person deserves the opportunity to learn, work, and thrive—regardless of their physical or sensory abilities.
