Dear friends,
Today we visited the “Margadarshi – Association for the disabled” group’s accommodation center at Ulsoor, Bangalore. A brief summary of this organization and possible collaboration opportunities are given below:
Focus: The primary focus of this association is to address the physical, emotional, sociological and economical problems of the physically challenged poor and needy community around the country.
Services: provided to the disabled persons presently include
Medical assistance, free surgery, medicine and follow-up consultation.
Wheelchairs, calipers, tricycles, crutches and other aids.
Free boarding, lodging, medical and educational assistance to 20 disabled women and children and educating for self reliance
Collaboration: From the quality of accommodation, inputs from disabled members and the initiatives (differently skilled and self-reliant members) taken to impart confidence in them, we feel it is worthy to tie up with them. Towards this, we can have a symbiotic relationship by referring to this organization, any individual suffering from a disability (physical/mental) during our visits to rural places and also, take up any educational requirements originating from this group.
