If we work together, there is much more that can be achieved to enhance lives of persons with spinal cord injury in particular, and disability in general.
The Ganga Foundation wishes to be a partner with foundations and programs of Corporate Social Responsibility throughout the county, as the needs of persons with Spinal Cord Injury are immense across India; we bring to the table quality team members and volunteers who can champion initiatives.
- Every CSR Program that has health as a key focus should automatically have a disability focus, as 10% of India’s population is disabled, and more than 95% are from economically challenged background.
- Every CSR Program – irrespective of focus areas – must take up a project in the disability space every year.Here is an illustrative list of areas in which we would like partner with your organisation with a long-term approach in the area of spinal cord injury:
- Empowering rehabilitation professionals
- Establishment of low-cost, high quality rehabilitation facilities
- Spinal India Peer Trainers – Pan-India network of trainers
- The Right Wheelchair Program
- Employment linkage
- Touch Rehab – a comprehensive rehabilitation& health resource
- The Spinal Foundation – Pan-India Self-Help Group
- India Spinal Cord Injury Registry – Know where we are
- Injury prevention awareness programs
- Promotion of sports among persons
