They all became like family, and they celebrate a certain day, week without a break. (Mother's Day, Father's Day, holidays, etc.). We learned that there are computer room, dubbing room, library in the association. We visited the dancing room. They use the audio room with the aim of publishing 150 books volunteered by different people on different days. On this page, visually impaired people can listen to the book they want on this site.
