Overview

Mission

Provide social, educational, physiological, and recreational needs for the blind and visually impaired through activities and programs.

What it reported doing in 2025

We are training the blind to read braille and to become self efficient through programs. These programs consist of field trips and training. Approximately twenty clients attend each day.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
