Samarthanam Overseas

Donate | Samarthanam Trust for the Disabled Cricket Association for the blind in India - Samarthanam Trust for the disabled have been promoting blind cricket since 2010 with the objective to use the spirit of cricket to enable the visually impaired to look at life positively and again confidence in their ability to win.

"I have a dream, I want to fly, I want to play, I want to learn, I want to be happy and I want to be successful." The same aspirations like any other children, these cheerful boys at the Intellectually challenged school of Samarthanam Trust For Disabled.

School building is completed and we are looking forward to opening the doors for the hostel facilities and offices very soon. When dreams are dreamt and visions are made, and efforts are put in, nothing is impossible. We know that in no time and will also be built; and our children at Samarthanam can enjoy all the luxuries of education, accommodation and most of all, excellent play-space!

Running is not about speed and timing for me. It's about overcoming fatigue, finding inner strength, fighting the scars and ignoring the blisters.

The happy time of Christmas is over and we hope you had a wonderful time with your families. But the spirit isn't over! Would you still like to be the reason for someone else's smile, for them to have a great relief as a gift for their New Year? Please visit https://www.globalgiving.org/projects/lets-get-together-to-educate-these-little-joys/ and contribute towards making these little ones the strong pillars of their community...

Let's get together to educate these little joys! Samarthanam has been striving towards working and advocating for the children with disabilities or from marginalised backgrounds.It isn't about the disabilities we work for,it is the abilities that we norture, the plethora of skills, talents and enthusiasm that we see in them, At the primary school,…

This money will go to breast cancer patients and their families. The NGO will have no operating cost, i shall personally pay for its rent, staff and other operating costs.
