GIFB started it activities by launching various course for the visually challenged. At present, we are running five courses in different categories for the visually challenged people across the country. Most of the courses are residential in nature and are tailor-made to suit the age, IQ and academic brilliance of each learner. Since the teachers need to give individual attention to blind students in activities like writing, we are maintaining the staff student ratio at 1:5 and admit only 5 students in a batch. All the expenses including food, accommodation and study materials will be met by GIFB. In addition to this, a monthly stipend of Rupees 1000/- is also given to the students to meet their conveyance and other expenses.

Six batches (33 Students) have successfully completed the three months Arabic Braille & Islamic Foundation Course so far. The third batch of six months Arabic Braille & Braille Qur’an Secondary Course will finish their course by February 2013. We have students from different age groups ranging from 15-60 years. We are also planning to start a three year Braille Qur’an & Hifiz course for the visually challenged.
We have conducted two vacation courses for school going students. 32 students, boys and girls, participated in this fifteen days vacation programme which enabled them to learn the basics of Arabic Braille and Braille Quran.
Two years passed since GIFB started its journey. As we all know, two years is too short to take the balance sheet of activities, especially for a global organization like GIFB. We are proud that we could do a lot for the visually challenged with the help our supporters.
