The guiding purposes of National Braille Press are to promote the literacy of blind children through braille and to provide access to information that empowers blind people to actively engage in work, family, and community affairs. Since it was founded in 1927 as a printing press to provide the first regularly issued braille newspaper to the blind community in Boston, NBP has expanded its efforts to ensure that blind people have the same access to information as sighted people in a medium they can read - braille. Braille is a writing system that enables blind and partially sighted people to read and write through touch

At the National Esports Association, our mission through the 'Look Up' campaign extends beyond celestial observation. We aspire to harness the extraordinary spectacle of the 2024 solar eclipse as a catalyst for inspiring our youth, fostering educational engagement, and igniting curiosity-driven learning. Our goal is to encourage individuals, especially the youth, to 'Look Up' not only at the eclipse but also towards a future filled with possibilities. Through this celestial event, we seek to transcend the skies and ignite the imagination of our young generation, empowering them to embrace wonder, seek inspiration, and explore the realms of science, technology, and the world beyond. We envision leveraging the eclipse as a pivotal moment to instill a sense of awe, inspiring our youth to engage in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education, fostering a curiosity-driven mindset that paves the way for lifelong learning. By encouraging 'Looking Up,' we aim to empower the youth to elevate their perspectives, not just towards the skies, but towards broader horizons of knowledge and discovery. Our mission encompasses inspiring the next generation to gaze skyward with a sense of wonder, while simultaneously looking forward with an insatiable thirst for knowledge and innovation, thereby shaping a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

To promote empowerment programs for better Health, Education and Livelihoods for disadvantaged populations. ................................................................................................... Here are some key areas where we seek partnership and support: 1. Education for Needy Children: We run programs that provide access to quality education for underprivileged children, ensuring they have the necessary resources and support to thrive in their academic pursuits. We provide fees, scholastic materials, uniforms and shoes to the disadvantaged children. We plan to fundraise, get fees and educational materials for needy children dropping out of school over poverty and abandonment. We plan to purchase land for the construction of a primary school for these children. 2. Women and Youth Empowerment: Our organization offers empowerment workshops, financial literacy trainings, and support services to help women and youth in marginalized communities achieve economic independence and self-sustainability. We are planning to establish a vocational training school for children who complete senior four and senior six and are unable to continue with the education over finances. We also plan to scale up our financial literacy training programs and train women in vegetable growing. 3. Environmental Conservation: We are actively involved in conservation efforts, including tree planting, waste management, and sustainable agriculture practices to preserve and protect our environment for future generations. Uganda was named the Pearl of Africa because of the beautiful scenery and climate but the forests and vegetation cover have reduced due to environmental degradation and the temperatures are now raising. We plan to establish nursery beds and plant one million trees in the eight districts of Rwenzori Western Uganda. We are doing this under our Greening Uganda Schools and communities Project. 4. Human Rights Advocacy: PLATFORM for the NEEDY advocates for the rights of vulnerable populations, including refugees, internally displaced persons, and marginalized groups, to ensure their voices are heard and respected. We plan to advance our advocacy to the deeper rural populations and refugees and take there our outreach counselling and training conferences and educate them with live drama episodes. 5. Maternal Health Initiatives: We have ongoing programs focused on improving maternal health outcomes through access to healthcare services, prenatal care, and maternal education. We intend to fundraise for the stunting children in Rwenzori region .Under this project we shall create more awareness using radio drama, social media, TVs, trainings and conferences for local leaders and health workers at all level, establish demonstration vegetable gardens at every household and every school and school debating competitions. We believe that by joining forces with Global Giving that offers visibility and connectivity to organizations with different partners and donors, we can leverage our collective strengths to create a more sustainable and equitable future for communities in Uganda and beyond.
