Please help us fulfil our goal by donating RM50 (USD10) for a Braille primer or RM250(USD60) for a Braille Quran. Our donation details are on www.alfitrah.net and our Maybank account is 5-64324-604245 under "Alfitrah foundation."

The centre has requested for more white canes for new trainees at their training centre so if you want to donate , the cost is RM25 each ( USD6) and payment details are at www.alfitrah.net

Alhamdulillah the Braille Qurans donated by One Life Global UK have arrived in 5 areas in Nigeria. We also sent English translations of the Quran as well as Braille books containing surah Yasin and other selected Surahs.

The photos are from Lagos and Niger State.

Alhamdulillah Alfitrah Foundation has delivered 3 Braille typewriters to visually impaired students in Johor. Braillers are essential for the blind as they cannot write but they are not affordable to most people as a new one costs almost RM4,000.

We obtained second hand Braillers for them .
