Request for Financial Support and Assistance in Securing Funds
Dear Donors and Well-wishers,
I hope this message finds you in good health and high spirits.
I am writing to inform you that the Society for the Empowerment of the Deaf-Blind (SEDB) India has successfully started classes for deafblind students at the Ali Yavar Jung National Institute for Hearing and Speech Disabilities (AYJNIHD), Mumbai, from the 16th of August. We are deeply grateful to AYJNIHD for providing us with free space to conduct these classes.
However, we are facing significant challenges in securing funds to support the ongoing efforts for the deafblind community. We require approximately ₹50,000 per month to cover essential expenses, including payments for trainers and coordinators, stipends for trainees, food, and local travel.
Many deafblind adults remain unemployed and continue to face hardships due to their inability to find work. Some have resorted to begging to survive. Our mission is to empower them by providing opportunities for independent living and dignified employment. Despite our efforts to reach out to sponsors and funding agencies, we have not been able to secure the necessary support yet.
We are in desperate need of your help and guidance to connect with potential donors or funding agencies. We also request assistance with applying for financial aid through various platforms, as our team faces accessibility challenges when navigating online registration processes. Any contribution, no matter how small, would go a long way in ensuring that our programs continue to provide hope and a brighter future for the deafblind community.
Should you be willing to support us, we can provide you with all the necessary documents, including our 12A, 80G, and CSR-1 certifications. We are also happy to send our full proposal via email. Please feel free to reach out to me directly via WhatsApp (text only) at +91 9998751125 or email me at zamir@sedbindia.org. We would be glad to answer any questions you may have and discuss how you can contribute.
Thank you for your time, consideration, and generosity. Your support will make a significant difference in the lives of many. Kindly share this with your friends and family.
Warm regards,
Zamir Dhale
