Dear sir or madam!

Before all we'd like to say thanks for your interest in visiting our Website.

We wouldn't like to take unfair advantage of your patience but let us present a short introduction of the Society of the Blind and Weak-sighted of Baranya, its tasks, aims, and possibilities.

Our society has been in existence since 20 October, 2005 as an independent civil organization, having taken over the duties of the Local Organization of the Hungarian Association of the Blind and Weak-sighted. At present, our membership numbers about 700.

The society is controlled by a five-member committee, including the chairman and vice-chairman as members. Among other things, it is our task to represent and stand up for the interests of the visually handicapped living in the county, also to promote them in adult education, help them find employment, to solve social problems, furthermore, cultural and free-time activities are organized. The bulk of our operational costs, the overheads, is provided through support from the state budget, which is supplemented by our own income, which include donations from different business establishments. Unfortunately, financial resources at our disposal are pretty tight, which, in many cases, hinders us in realizing our goals.

Should you have further interest in our activities, please study our Website more thoroughly, and if you consider our work worth supporting, we'll be only too glad to accept and thank you for a donation that could be remitted to our account at Szigetvári Takarékszövetkezet, account No.

It is, of course, also possible for you to donate a sum of money for a purpose defined by yourself, in which case an item by item account will be provided of the use.

Yours very sincerely

The Committee of the Society
