MY STATEMENT " Don't treat blind people as disabled. Just give them opportunity they would make you realize they are good in hearing, singing and everything you are not good at. Phew! "
INTRODUCTION
" Founded in 1988, the Pakistan Foundation Fighting Blindness (PFFB), formerly known as the Pakistan Retinitis Pigmentosa Society (PREPS) is a registered national, non-governmental organisation (NGO) working in the field of medical research and humanitarian services for the visually impaired in our country. " [SOURCE] - I didn't gave an introduction. I think quoting their effort is good and it should be that way. Don't ask me why. Please, don't.

PROJECTS IN FULL SWING
- Medical and Research project - Spreading of information related to EYE diseases ( leading to blindness )
- PFFB Audio World - Classic Audio Entertainment. NOVELS, BOOKS, TEXT BOOKS. All Juice.
- "Darakhshan" - Letting people know how to live with Blindness. [ PICTURE GALLERY ]
- "IT HELPLINE Project" - Internet Cafe for Visually impaired ( Soul Seer )
So, these projects are going very well. For those who are able to donate. I say don't donate, be a volunteer write at pffb@comsats.net.pk - No, matter from whence you came you can make a contribution.
I don't care from what place you blog. Make an effort and contribute your reading ability to the organization. Sorry, for being " I don't care ". The fact is I don't receive any comments and all that So, I usually write what I want to.
I feel that it's Ok! to say angrily " fighting blind " - Curing blindness ( It's good to associate positive words ). So, I don't expect the organization to change name it's just that PAKISTAN CHRONICLES has it's own opinion. Positiveness is the way forward whether in blindness or something else.
