Projects

Shaheed Major Nitin Bali Social Awareness Project

This project was launched on 7 November 2014. Under this project an eye donation pledge camp was organised in SKIET college campus Kurukshetra. The staff and students who participated in that camp were pledged to donate eyes after death and to motivate others to donate eyes. India is now home to the world’s largest number of blind people. Of the 37 million people across the globe who are blind, over 15 million are from India. What’s worse, 75% of these are cases of avoidable blindness, thanks to the country’s acute shortage of optometrists and donated eyes for the treatment of corneal blindness. While India needs 40,000 optometrists, it has only 8,000. On the other hand, while India needs 2.5 lakh donated eyes every year, the country’s 109 eye banks (five in Delhi) manage to collect a maximum of just 25,000 eyes, 30% of which can't be used. Of the 15 million blind people in India, three million, 26% of whom are children, suffer due to corneal disorders. But only 10,000 corneal transplants are being done every year due to the shortage of donated eyes.
The organisation's main aims of launching this project are to increase eyes stocks in eye bank of India and to make India a blind free country.[4]
A candle light march was organised on 1st may 2015 from sec 17 to Kurukshetra University 3rd gate to pay tribute for the victims of Nepal and Bihar Earthquake. [5] [6]
