Impact
Tactile Library
Tactile books represent a set of graphics, figures and designs that a visually impaired student can learn from easily by feeling. Hence, it is important to set up libraries with various books for students to learn from. We aim to reach such books to the rural parts of India by encouraging this advancement in learning. This will serve thousands of children and adults to understand the world around them better.

Our organisation started setting up Tactile Libraries last year, and the effort has continued and spread. We have set up around 15-20 tactile libraries so far across Karnataka. This effort benefited over 800-1000 visually Impaired learners.
