CREATING EMPLOYMENT FOR DEAF & MUTES

            

Deaf & Mutes have tremendous problems in getting employment in office, factory, sales etc, due to their inability to communicate. This situation has created hopelessness in their lives and at certain point in time they live depressed and meaningless life. They feel neglected and burden on government, society and family for their maintenance. To help them live better life we have come up with the following project:
