Sponsor an Advocacy and Outreach Program

Sponsor an Advocacy and Outreach Program at Equip India to raise awareness, promote disability rights, and provide vital resources to underserved communities.

Introduction

In rural India, people with disabilities often face deep-seated social stigma, limited access to healthcare, and a lack of awareness about their rights. Many individuals and families are unaware of the services and benefits available to them, leaving them isolated and struggling to meet their basic needs. At Equip India Charitable Trust, we are committed to changing this narrative through our Advocacy and Outreach Programs, which work to raise awareness, empower individuals with disabilities, and ensure they can access their rights and entitlements. By sponsoring an advocacy and outreach program, you can help promote disability rights, foster inclusion, and create long-lasting change in rural communities.

Why Sponsor an Advocacy and Outreach Program?

People with disabilities in rural India are among the most marginalized, often excluded from education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. This exclusion is perpetuated by a lack of knowledge about their legal rights, limited access to government services, and social discrimination. By sponsoring an advocacy and outreach program, you will:

Raise Awareness

Help educate individuals with disabilities, their families, and communities about disability rights, healthcare services, and government benefits.

Promote Social Inclusion

Break down barriers of stigma and discrimination, fostering a more inclusive environment where people with disabilities can thrive.

Empower Individuals

Equip individuals with disabilities with the knowledge and confidence to advocate for themselves and access essential services.

Create Long-Term Impact

Support sustainable outreach efforts that continue to benefit communities long after the program’s initial implementation.
