Most of the children at Akshar, reside in the old part of city as they come from underprivileged backgrounds. Traditionally, Akshar was located at various locations in the old city area of Vadodara due to feasibility of acquiring inexpensive/free space to run the centre. Upon provision of land by Gujarat Government, Akshar built its own centre and relocated to Sherkhi, about 20 kms from the old city. Hence, providing them a mode of transport as they cannot afford on their own is imperative
We are falling short in few line items of which, running operations of bus facility is an area of concern. Not even one child in the past 30 years has paid what it costs to educate her/him. Akshar also faces challenges to pay competitively to staff vis-à-vis the market. Hence, this transport facility helps in mitigating the challenges. Akshar falls short of INR 13.30 Lakhs per annum in terms of meeting the running expenses of the bus facility. Hence, this Adoption drive to cater the expenses. It is cost effective and convenient than traditional fundraising, all the funds raised go towards the cause
Akshar has been a symbol of trust for over 30 years with numerous certifications and accreditations, especially by Rehabilitation Council of India and National Convention of Educators of the Deaf. Several Akshar alumni are successfully employed.
