New Building Project

Help Us Create a Safer Home for Our Special Children

For over half a century, Opportunity School has been a beacon of hope, care, and love for children with intellectual disabilities in our community. In recognition of our dedicated service, we were honored with the “Best Institution Award” by the State Government in 2019.

Our campus consists of three blocks. For many years, all three buildings were severely affected by flooding during the monsoon season. Thanks to the generosity of our kind-hearted donors, we were able to renovate two of these blocks by raising their floor levels, ensuring they remain safe even during heavy rains.

However, our main building, which has served as a safe haven for our children since 1985, is now in urgent need of renovation. Decades of wear and repeated flooding have left the building vulnerable. Every monsoon brings the risk of water entering the premises, threatening the safety and well-being of the children who depend on us.

To protect them, we have initiated a project to renovate the 1985 block by raising its flooring to the current road level, making it resilient against future flooding.

We cannot accomplish this without your support.

Your generous contribution, no matter the amount, will help us create a safer and more secure environment for these special children. Every donation brings us one step closer to ensuring they can learn, grow, and thrive without fear during the rainy season.

We sincerely request your support for this important cause.

Together, we can build a safer future where every child, regardless of their challenges, has the opportunity to learn, grow, and flourish.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support.
