Our association started a hostel in 1996 for the children of integrated education system at Nalgonda. In 1999 it was converted in to a secondary residential school as “Nalgonda School for the Blind”. We had constructed a four storied building with 42 rooms in DWAB own land with the donations from the patrons. We have Administrative Block and Class Rooms in Ground Floor. We also have Braille type learning centre, Braille printer for preparation of brail notes, one Dinning Hall, Kitchen and separate dormitory for girls are in the first floor. In the second floor we have Computer Learning Centre, Boys dormitory, Braily Books Library and store room and at third floor a well furnished auditorium with 500 seating capacity and one small guest house for care taker is constructed. We can proudly claim for fame that no such blind school is functioning in entire Andhra Pradesh with such excellent amenities and infrastructure. Today there are about 146 blind students with separate facilities for boys and girls. We are providing Hostel facility with Education totally free for blind. This school is running by DWAB-Nalgonda with partial aid by the Government of India through the Ministry of Social Justice and empowerment since 1999 and donations from NRIs & philanthropists. The school is recognized by the Government, having higher standards of Braille education. The school has been fetching 100% results since its inception in 1996. We have 22 well trained Teachers and 15 members as supporting staff. As you know, these disabled children need more no of supporting staff than able children. Several dignitaries from Government and eminent personalities from public life visited our school and expressed their utmost satisfaction and happiness over the functioning of the school. We appeal to all the people to direct parents of the blind children in the age group of 6 to 16 years to admit in our school. They will be provided school and hostel facilities free of cost from classes 1st to 10th. We are spending nearly Rs.3.00 lacs for boarding expenses, salaries and maintenance charges per month. We need Rs.36 to 40 lacs(approx.) per annum to run the school. The Ministry of Social Justice and empowerment has issued a grant-in-aid of Rs.21.06 lacs in 2006-07, Rs.21.94 lacs in 2007-08 and Rs.23.87 lacs in 2008-09. For the year 2009-10 we did not receive the grant. We had appealed the Government of India for release of grant. We thank all the donors’ philanthropists for your kind generosity and we once again appeal to save the blind children from hunger and the school from closure. The children will be on streets. Save this institution, brought up by you.
