According to WHO, approximately 1 in a 150 Indians suffer from blindness; nearly a million of these are children. In over half of the cases, the blindness is treatable or preventable; however, most of the children never receive medical attention due to a variety of reasons. Orbis International estimates that 60 percent of India’s blind children die before reaching adulthood.
At Project Prakash Charitable Trust, these statistics are more than mere numbers; each figure represents a child we have not yet reached.
What We Do
Project Prakash Charitable Trust is dedicated to bringing light into the lives of persons with various disabilities. Currently, our primary focus is on children afflicted with curable blindness.
We offer crucial support to children affected by congenital cataracts. We provide them with the necessary medical treatment, followed by educational and vocational training, empowering them to lead lives filled with dignity and purpose.
