Why Project Prakash ?

In India, 1 in 1,000 children are blind.

Many due to conditions that could be treated with the right care. Tragically, most of these children never receive the help they need, growing up in a world without the chance to see.

Project Prakash is changing that reality. With every surgery, every child, they are not only restoring sight, but restoring a future. One child at a time, they’re giving them the opportunity to see the world and to dream of a life filled with endless possibilities.

Testimonials by Donor & Volunteer - Meattle Family

We have had the privilege to know Dr Sinha since 2013. Dr Sinha founded Project Prakash not only to restore sight to children born blind but also to unlock profound insights into how the brain learns to see. His dedication towards Project Prakash and the impact that it has created is really impressive and heartwarming. By supporting Project Prakash, you’re not just funding surgeries; you’re giving children the gift of sight, empowering them with opportunities for education and independence, and contributing to groundbreaking research on vision and brain development.
