Divya Jyothi Charitable Trust thank you for your kind and wholehearted support throughout our long campaign to make it to the final round of Mahindra's Spark the Rise. We made it to the final round with a count of 71 466 votes, which gave us a sound platform when we made our presentation to the Jury on 5th April 2013.
Out of the 13 finalists, who made presentations, we were awarded the first runner-up place. This recognition and accompanying award has brought us ever closer to our dream of establishing the first Braille Transcription Center in Karnataka to help the cause of Education for the Visually Impaired in Karnataka.
The task ahead is huge, as we have to purchase a Braille Transcriber and utilize it to capacity in a professional manner and reach the manyvisually impaired people, young and old, in the rural areas and in our own city. We have many ideas waiting to be converted into action, and we shall continue to rely on your participation to realize our goals.
We welcome your suggestions, contributions, and your time as volunteers.
Once again, thank you for being a part of the Divya Jyothi Charitable Trust family.
