Covid19: Stories from the ground #2

With the nationwide lockdown due to Covid-19, two hostels housing 40 blind boys and girls in Pune were suddenly caught unprepared. Their major source of income was an orchestra of blind children that performed round the year.
 
The hostel administration soon ran out of money and everyday essentials. When they reached out to Eyeway for support, we immediately shared the information among our network, expecting a response. It was heartwarming to see many individuals and establishments come forward and offer support in cash and kind that was immensely helpful for these hostels to provide for the blind children.
 
Amidst the Covid-19 crisis, Project Eyeway is trying its best to reach out to persons with disabilities in need of everyday essentials across states. We are grateful to all the givers who have shown compassion and empathy and have joined us in our efforts.
 
We have been able to help more than a hundred disabled people so far and look forward to scaling up the relief work.
 
Join our efforts by donating or volunteering to fight the biggest humanitarian crisis of our time.
