In collaboration with RLE India Pvt. Ltd., Child Help Foundation (CHF) facilitated the distribution of 11 hearing aids to individuals with hearing impairments at Sir C.V. Raman General Hospital in Bengaluru, Karnataka. This compassionate and accessibility-driven initiative has not only restored the ability to hear but also renewed the confidence and independence of the recipients. By addressing this crucial healthcare need, CHF has significantly enhanced the quality of life for these individuals and their families.
On April 26th in Mumbai, Maharashtra, Child Help Foundation had the privilege of partnering with Snehankit Helpline NGO for a specialized training session designed for visually impaired youth. The session focused on relationships and personal safety, particularly emphasizing the distinction between good touch and bad touch. Through open dialogue and sensory-sensitive guidance, CHF aimed to empower these young individuals with the knowledge and confidence to understand and assert personal boundaries, promoting a culture of dignity, safety, and respect.
In a significant step toward promoting accessibility, CHF launched its Inclusive Digital Access Program in Bengaluru, Karnataka, with the support of RLE International Pvt. Ltd. The event was honoured by the presence of B. Dayananda IPS, Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru, who emphasized the critical need for digital inclusion. This pioneering initiative equips blind individuals with computers, JAWS software, Braille displays, and other assistive technologies, ensuring they are not excluded from the digital world. Through focused digital literacy training, the program enables participants to access information, pursue education, and seek employment on an equal platform.
Speaking about these recent initiatives, Mr. Shaji Varghese, Chief Executive Officer of Child Help Foundation, said, “True progress is measured not just by economic development but by how well we uplift and include our most vulnerable citizens. Whether through healthcare, safety education, or digital empowerment, Child Help Foundation remains committed to building a future where no one is left behind. Together with our partners and community allies, we continue to break barriers and create pathways to dignity, independence, and opportunity.”
These inclusive initiatives demonstrate CHF’s dedication to enhancing lives through focused efforts that foster accessibility, raise awareness, and empower individuals, helping to create a society where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.
