Founded by Ms Parimala Bhat in 2001, Snehankit Helpline emerged from a simple yet powerful belief that visual impairment should never limit a person’s ability to access education, information, technology, employment, or opportunity. What began as a committed effort to support visually impaired individuals has evolved into a trusted organisation working across education, accessibility, rehabilitation, technology, skill development, and independent living. Over the years, we have remained focused on helping individuals build confidence, strengthen abilities, and participate more actively in society. Every initiative we undertake reflects our commitment to inclusion, dignity, accessibility, and independence.
For more than two decades, Snehankit Helpline has worked to create opportunities that help visually impaired individuals learn, grow, participate, and live with greater confidence and independence. Our journey is rooted in the belief that accessibility opens doors to possibility.
A world where visual impairment never limits education, employment, mobility, participation, or opportunity. We envision communities where accessibility is integrated into everyday life and where every individua.
To create accessible pathways through education, technology, rehabilitation, advocacy, and community support that enable visually impaired individuals to participate fully and independently in society.
Blindness is not the barrier. Lack of accessibility is. When education, information, technology, and opportunities become accessible, individuals gain the confidence and skills needed to shape their own future.
Since 2001, Snehankit Helpline has steadily expanded its efforts to create greater accessibility, educational opportunities, skill development programmes, and independent living support for visually impaired individuals. Each milestone reflects a continued commitment to inclusion, confidence, and the belief that opportunity should be accessible to all.
