Blind Welfare Society

The Society regularly takes up the distribution of white foldable canes to blind girls free of charge. This cane is a lifeline for many visually challenged people to find their way in the world. Through this initiative, the Society intends to enable the visually challenged to be confident, independent and able to reach anywhere on their own without assistance.

BWS provides financial assistance to economically backward blind people to pay for academic expenses, purchase aids or appliances and fulfilling their career aspirations. The assistance amount can be up to an amount of Rs. 2000

The Society encourages learning Braille as reading and writing are the only ways ahead to progress in life. So, to promote Braille literacy it conducts special classes which not only help the visually challenged to get gainful employment in future but also boosts their confidence.

To assist low-income blind people across Delhi in times of the pandemic, the Society took up initiatives to distribute grocery kits. The pandemic stopped sources of income for blind people who sell toys or sing and beg at bus and railway stations. The provisions were so given that they last for a few weeks helping the blind people tide over the lockdowns.
