“Knock and the door shall open, seek and you shall find…”
The visually handicapped in Sri
Lanka are experiencing the truth of this statement at the Sri Lanka
Federation of the Visually Handicapped (SLFVH). The SLFVH was founded
on 9th November 1974 by a band of dedicated and
devoted visually handicapped pioneers, primarily for the purpose
of meeting the needs and aspirations and improving the quality of
life of the visually handicapped community. The SLFVH strives to
ensure equal opportunities for the visually handicapped so that
their talents and potential can be harnessed and directed towards
their rehabilitation, effective participation in society and national
development.
Since its inception, the SLFVH has grown in stature and scope, and today it encompasses a multitude of functions for the welfare of the visually handicapped. The bold and able leadership of the President of the organisation and the dedicated Office Bearers elected to the Federation just prior to its Silver Jubilee anniversary (in 1999) has seen it through to its present development and expanded services.
