8-Day Computer Workshop for the Visually Impaired – A Grand Success!
May 19, 2025
We are thrilled to share that the 8-Day Computer Workshop for the Visually Impaired, organized by Thaaikarangal Charitable Trust in association with Darshini and Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT), Vellore, from 19th to 26th May 2025, was a tremendous success!
Over 86 visually impaired participants from across Tamil Nadu took part in this life-changing program, gaining hands-on computer skills, digital confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose. Many participants had never used a computer before, and left empowered, motivated, and digitally equipped.
The workshop was not only a technical training initiative but also a deeply human and inclusive experience. Participants were guided by a team of 12 dedicated instructors and supported by an incredible group of volunteers and well-wishers.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to VIT Vellore for their exceptional hospitality, state-of-the-art facilities, and their unwavering support toward inclusion and empowerment. Special thanks to the Vice President of VIT, Mr. Sankar Viswanathan, for attending the valedictory function and distributing certificates and laptops to the students.
This milestone event is a testament to the power of collaboration, compassion, and the belief that technology is for everyone.
Stay tuned for more updates and stories from this inspiring journey!
