The Best Gift Someone Can Give Is To Be Self-Reliant. Education Is A Tool That Helps One Fight Self-Reliantly. Often, It Is Seen That The Specially-Abled, Physically And Mentally Challenged, Struggle To Enjoy The Privileges And Benefits Of Continued Education & Upbringing. At The Other Hand, Often The Families And Friends Of Specially-Abled Struggle To Find Readily Available, Affordable Services For Their Care And Education. We All Own The Social Responsibility To Identify Them And Support Them By Educating Them And Their Families Of Their Needs And Resources For Their Continued Growth Support To Be Self-Reliant And Self-Respectful.
