I received a new year greeting card by regular post this morning from a very special person. Now she is special not because that I know her personally or we share some special bond or friendship, in fact I have just met her 2 –3 times; she is special because of what she believes in and what she stands for.
I salute the effort and her philosophy and the work she is doing for making this world a better place.
I urge all my friends and people who have stumbled upon this post to please visit “http://www.braillecards.org/” and the blog “http://eshabraille.wordpress.com/” and get to know what Esha is all about.
The following is an extract from their About Us page:
“Esha is a bunch of volunteers who are together because they believe in the same thing - that being blind does not have to mean being unemployed.
Founded in January 2005 by an IIM Calcutta alumnus, Esha is a non-profit initiative working towards making the blind self-reliant. It is now a self sustaining bunch of volunteers who join for the love of the work, and because they believe in the mission of self sustenance for the blind.”
I would request you to please click HERE to know how can you help.
PS: For those who want to know, the name of the person I have written about is Nidhi and not Esha and you can contact the organization by sending an email at the following address: esha_braille@yahoo.com
