Funmi is a young lady who lost both her eye sight to glaucoma. She needed help with adjusting to her new normal, especially because she was a newly wedded bride and did not want to be a burden to her husband. She was happy that IOWAF was able to support with funds to purchase a braille machine that helped her relearn to read, and eventually get her back her life and confidence.
