Dare to Dream, to Inspire, and to Make a Difference

Take a moment and think of a dream you’ve had. Did you reach it? Or perhaps you’re still in the process of reaching it. Sometimes dreams can change as we change, but one thing is for certain, dreaming is for everyone. No matter your age, gender, or ability.   

Thanks to the generous support of over 85 donors and the generous match from the Schultz family, we raised $35,000! Thanks to your donations, our children can be set up for success and challenged to dream big! Every donation, no matter the size, is supporting the tools and resources needed for bettering the lives of our students, their families, and our community. Be it new books and materials in the classroom or transportation for our staff to provide therapy for a child across the state, your dollars truly make a difference!  

At Children’s Center for the Visually Impaired, we believe that when blind & visually impaired children are provided access to specialized education and therapeutic services they can truly excel and reach their highest potential! Every child has a different goal and journey, but one thing that is the same for all is the desire to dream and have the independence to live life

Our dream at CCVI is that children with visual impairments, including those with multiple disabilities, are empowered and given equal opportunities to thrive in an equitable system of support. But if you ask our students, they might say something much more individualized, such as an astronaut, police officer, or even a queen. Thanks to the dedicated support of individuals like YOU, no dream is too small, and no dream is out of reach! 

If you’d like to continue supporting the dreams of our students and the work we do, consider joining our Monthly Donor Program! This is the most direct way to make a difference throughout the whole year. Learn more by following the link below!
