Require fund for disabled link food,teaching aid,hearing aid ,stationary etc.

While it might be a good idea for some, others of us aren't big on Hearing Impaired children learning spoken language to communicate.
Some of my friends have long memories of being beaten for using sign language. Others have the education level when leaving school of an 8 year old because oralism was the way the school pushed for.

Now if you got some Deaf Impaired (otherwise known as hearing) kids to learn sign language too, maybe there would be balance.

Are these kids being taught sign language too? Or are you moving back to oralism with all its issues?
Sorry, for some of us involved with the Deaf world, the teaching of children becomes an emotive issue.

I'm amazed Howard hasn't said this yet - and hope he will excuse me doing so.

This forum is not for applying for funding. It is for fundraisers to seek advice on improving their work. A few points:

1. General requests like yours will not get a positive response. We are not going to do your fundraising research for you - we have our own jobs. If you have a specific question about fundraising, then please ask - but don't just ask for money. Again, that is not what this forum is for. You need to do some work too. There are a number of directories out there. Directory of Social Change - www.dsc.org.uk - publishes a directory of grantmakers that make international grants. Google is also your friend - try a search on grantmakers+india or for funders that may be interested in disability projects internationally.

2. When you have a list of grantmakers that look like they may be interested in your work, check the grantmaker's guidelines. I cannot say this enough. Not every grantmaker will fund your organisation. This is not because they think what you do has no value. It's because grantmakers have limited funds too, which is why they set limits on who can and cannot apply. Some grantmakers are restricted, by law (their founding documents) to funding in certain areas. Don't waste your time asking for money from organisations that will not - or even legally cannot - give it to you.

3. The second paragraph of your post is incomprehensible. I know that English is not your first language - and certainly your English is a lot better than any of my second languages. But your first paragraph shows that you CAN use capitals and punctuation. One great long sentence is difficult to read.

4. There are MILLIONS of charities out there. Don't take slow responses, no responses or refusal of funds personally. If you do your research and target your applications properly, you'll get better results.

5. Do a search on previous posts on this forum. There are a LOT of posts advising on how you put together a proposal, what it should contain, what funders are looking for. You may find some of your questions have been answered already.
