Limitations
The development of the organization's projects does not proceed fast enough due
to lack of adequate funds. Many international organizations funding projects are biased against the
disabled. Their minds are inculcated with the saying -
"Disability is Inability". However, we welcome
any willing donors wishing to create partnership with us
for the development of our projects.
