Blind Resource Foundation Pakistan (BRFP)

The Blind Resource Foundation Pakistan (BRFP) is a registered non-government organization (NGO), which was established on 7th of August, 2015 with a purpose to help the blind through providing them with sufficient resources, and proper guidance so that they can move forward in life, and become successful in whatever field or career they choose. The objectives and goals of our organization are to remove the present social barriers and create an inclusive society. We hope to create such a society where the negative metaphors and signifiers are eliminated that misrepresent a blind individual’s image in the society. We plan to do this through the promotion of assistive technology and other necessary resources that can diminish their disability, and help them live their life independently. We aim to establish a system where disabled individuals are encouraged, and rehabilitated, a system which is similar to the ones formed especially for such individuals in countries other than Pakistan. Our motive is to replace the word ‘Disable’ with ‘Capable’.
