Some evenings stay with you long after the last note fades—not because of how perfectly a song was sung, but because of why everyone came together in the first place.
On March 7th, the community is coming together for an unforgettable Access Braille Fundraiser, where music, laughter, friendly competition, and purpose take center stage. This is not just an event—it’s a celebration of inclusion, access, and opportunity.
Why Access Braille Matters—Now More Than Ever
Access Braille is dedicated to empowering visually impaired and blind students worldwide by ensuring they have equal access to education through assistive technology and Braille literacy programs. Their work directly addresses a critical and growing gap:
-
Nearly 60% of teachers serving visually impaired students lack access to necessary teaching technology
-
Only 40% of students who could benefit from assistive technology actually receive it
-
Recent federal funding cuts have resulted in the cost burden of $350 per student per month
The consequence is not just slower learning—it’s diminished independence, reduced job prospects, and fewer opportunities in an increasingly digital world. Access Braille exists to change that reality.
To date, the organization has supported over 25,000 visually impaired individuals, partnering with respected institutions such as Vista Center, Sankara Nethralaya, Mission Saksham, and more.
The Fundraiser: Where Fun Fuels Impact
This March, Access Braille invites you to an evening where music meets mischief and fun meets purpose.
Expect:
-
Laughter, friendly competition, and plenty of “arre yeh gaana!” moments
-
Singing, guessing, cheering, and celebrating together
-
A warm, community-driven atmosphere where every laugh supports a meaningful cause
And yes—snacks and dinner are included, generously provided by Mylapore Express.
