A few words from the Chairman
BIRDS has been working since the last 30 years with the motto-
‘Development through Education’ in this region and has implemented many development programs in rural and urban areas in 2018-19 very
successfully. A glance through its past, and the bottlenecks and challenges it faced to reach this destiny clearly show that its sustained growth has not
been all that easy. It is a proud moment to recollect its present growth facing all the challenges and turbulences. Especially its work with children
with hearing disabilities and infants(0 – 6 years old)with multiple dis-abilities and retarded growth is a very sensitive work and the staff involved in tht
work are to be applauded for their service mindedness, creativity and
dedication.
Likewise the technical and financial assistance of the APD organization of
Bengaluru in this holy work has to be highly commended we are highly thankful to them for their help in our efforts. There are many departments of
the Government, NGO federations like FEVOURD-K, VANI, DNA and others
who have been us as partners in our endeavors and we are thankful to them all. We wish to thank all those who have provided financial assistance to us
during 2018-19.
Our dream has been to establish a Free special school in Bagalkot town to
cater to the educational needs of specially able children in this region. We
thank all the schools that are already supporting the education of such
children in this region. In a nutshell, we have accomplished many seemingly
impossible tasks during 2018-19. The field staff that has made this possible and the Management that has extended a whole-hearted support to them
are to be commended for their efforts.
We also thank all the donor agencies and individuals, Department of Women and Child welfare, Department of Health , Department of Public
Instruction, Department of Senior Citizens and Special able persons, who have been with us all these days expending all the support in our endeavors.
