"Know me for my abilities, not my disability"
–Robert
M. Hensel
Everybody might have a personal story to share, but very few raise-up to be an Inspiration. Let me introduce you all to one such role model…
Mr. Prabhu, M.Sc., B.Ed., Ph.D. (pursuing) is a 35-year-old, visually challenged stereotype breaker. He is a talented drummer, an
affectionate father, a renowned literatus, a volunteer
for a social cause he believes in… and much more!
He is a role model for persistence, with his perseverance
and passion, he constantly overcomes his inner and external hindrances. He is a positive person to be appreciated. Always
glad to accept the challenges in his way and never complaints and grateful to
the supportive society and the good souls who push him to conquer his goals.
He is a role model for persistence, with his perseverance and passion, he constantly overcomes his inner and external hindrances. He is a positive person to be appreciated. Always glad to accept the challenges in his way and never complaints and grateful to the supportive society and the good souls who push him to conquer his goals.
In spite of the standstill pandemic COVID situation, he keeps up his passion as his priority and his never-give-up attitude is a lesson for all. Instead of seeking the other's supports, he constantly finds a way to support himself and his near and dear ones through this situation.
With too many feathers in his cap, he is running a small-scale business for a living now, funded by Lit the Light Trust. Financial self-sufficiency and security for himself and his family is his prime goal. Of course, such a lifestyle will obviously reduce his rate of dependency and he will be a better contributor to society.
He is currently doing his doctoral research work on how to
create a better environment using technology-aided tools to make education
reach out to his fellow visually challenged. Once published, his research will impact
many visually challenged in a much effective way for their education.
As he explains about himself, he is an introvert, but his
actions speak louder for him than his words. Lit the Light is proud of his
attitude and how he has developed himself with the support provided for him.
Hence, The Lit the Light appeals to the society we live-in to support the
visually challenged we come across or contact us, to help them live a good
self-sufficient life in the mainstream.
This article is published by Lit the Light, a
non-profit organization, exclusively to support the Visually Challenged. We
organize many activities to uplift the life of Visually Challenged with One day
at a time as the goal. No support is low or high, every support is a necessity.
One of our activity is career support, we have a long
list of job seekers with varied skilled profiles, and we would be much grateful
if you or any of your contacts…entrepreneurs, recruiters who support inclusive
employment …Please contact us, we are actively and sincerely trying to place
them.
Help us support the visually challenged to see the light by the end of the tunnel. Please contact us with any available job/career opportunities. Please spread the word and make our appeal worthy.
