THE CONTEXT
We want to share a unique and inspiring story about a remarkable individual, Mr. Hareesh, and we hope it motivates you to support our cause. A few weeks ago, we had the privilege of meeting Mr. Hareesh, who is visually impaired. Initially, we felt uncertain about how the visit would go, worried that he might struggle to navigate our home. However, he surprised us by being a cheerful, confident person who navigated with remarkable skill. Currently, he works as an Assistant Manager at Union Bank in Jadcherla.

Mr. Hareesh's life story is truly extraordinary. Born into a lower-middle-class family, he and his younger sister were both born with a condition that caused 100% blindness. Their father refused to let society's limitations define them. He continually encouraged them to strive for success, believing they could achieve anything they set their minds to. Thanks to his unwavering support and with the limited resources available for the visually impaired, both Mr. Hareesh and his sister are now postgraduates and proud government servants.
Hearing Mr. Hareesh’s story opened our eyes to the challenges visually impaired individuals face in accessing basic education.
THE INITIATIVE
Inspired by his journey, we decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign to help provide visually challenged students who study at Govt HS Visually Handicapped, Mahabubnagar with essential study equipment.
Many of these students lack access to crucial tools, like Braille kits and slates, which can significantly enhance their educational experience. These resources are often too expensive for families and schools, making it even harder for visually impaired students to keep up in a traditional school system.
JUST INR 3000 WILL SUPPORT ONE CHILD.
THE EQUIPMENT PROVIDED
ABOUT US
We are Akhil and Nikhil Reddy Challa. We are Grade 11 students at the Oakridge International School, Gachibowli.
We have undertaken this campaign to impact the lives of visually impaired children who are about our age. Giving them essential study equipment will help them study better and focus on their dreams. Just INR 3000 will help one child. We aim to raise a total of INR 102000 and help 34 students. With your help, we believe we can exceed this target. Every penny collected will directly fund study equipment for visually challenged students.
Together, we can make a difference. Your support will help us provide specialized tools, such as Braille kits and writing aids, enabling these students to thrive in their education and grow in confidence.
