A great way of supporting us is if you spread the word about TOGETHER and share our vision among your family and friends, colleagues, and other interested individuals.
When you choose to give to TOGETHER, you choose not only to support ongoing projects that impact lives daily but also to help reach those who are still in need of Education, Rehabilitation, and Inclusion. Learn how you can make an immediate impact by supporting the empowerment and inclusion of visually impaired individuals in Ethiopia. Our mission is significant, and with your help, we can continue making strides in building inclusive opportunities. Let us move forward, together!
The rehabilitation service supports women with visual impairments and their children, brought off the streets, who face psychosocial challenges, depression, and poverty, providing them with care and opportunities for a better future.
A major challenge of visual impairment is society's lack of awareness about the visually impaired. Launching programs to counter negative attitudes and encourage positive perceptions is crucial for inclusion.
Digital literacy programs for the visually impaired offer training in essential tools, enabling users to access education, apply for jobs, manage finances, and connect with others through online platforms.
Training at TOGETHER equips beneficiaries with education and skills to support themselves. They learn job search skills like CV preparation, and some even take entrepreneurial steps to start businesses.
TOGETHER's Dinner In The Dark program offers a unique and thought-provoking dining experience where guests are immersed in complete darkness. This immersive event aims to raise awareness and empathy for individuals with visual impairments. By temporarily depriving diners of their sight, the program encourages them to rely on their other senses, such as taste, smell, and hearing, to navigate the dining experience. This heightened sensory awareness fosters a deeper appreciation for the challenges faced by people who are visually impaired. Additionally, the program empowers individuals with visual impairments by providing them with meaningful employment opportunities as waiters. Read More
