Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much. – Hellen Keller Help MBA Foundation in its efforts to provide a life of dignity and self-esteem to differently-abled people. This NGO embraces the sentiments of the poem "THIS-ABILITY” by William E. Lightbourne (1990) ~~~~ Take my disability and make it work. Do not scorn me, for it may hurt. You see, I am teachable, trainable and educable. In fact, I am useful and quite capable. Oh no, not helpless or problematic! But I am very active and quite energetic. Do not cast me into an eternity of total dependency, Or lure me into a world of fantasy. Certainly, I have a disability, And I do not deny its reality. Nevertheless, I must not resign to a life of pity, Or reside on the fringes of society. Use the skills that I have got. Do not focus on what I have not. Of course, I am aware of my limitation. Yet, I am a part of God’s wonderful creation. Therefore, please accept me with “This Ability” of mine, Then let the full range of my potential shine. ~~~~ Hold my hand and walk with me. We must break the back of social inequity; We must empower every individual with a disability To live with dignity in an inclusive society. ~~~~ MBA Foundation needs your support to launch its new integrated rehabilitation centre, GOD's ABODE, Airoli in 2016 to provide rehabilitation, vocational training, daycare and livelihood opportunities to 300 differently-abled adults and residential facilities to 75 individuals with special needs.

About Me
In my own small ways I want to help those who strive to make the world a better place for the most neglected and overlooked sections of society. At MBA Foundation centres, I've seen the zest for life that is roused and nurtured in the differently-abled members as they celebrate birthdays, festivals and other special occasions. Their eyes light up with joy and gratitude, with hopes and aspirations as they take part in the engaging activities at the centre. It is humbling to see the painstaking meticulousness and quality consciousness they show when making gift paper bags for sale. The warm and courteous greetings they extend to visitors wins hearts. I am also moved by the love and concern of elderly parents for their special children.
