When you give to The Iris Network, you are helping people of all ages who are challenged by vision loss or blindness. With your support, we can provide essential services and education to a growing population of people with visual impairment, improving their quality of life and community engagement.
Your gift to The Iris Network today means…
- An aging person with vision loss can remain in their home and avoid costly nursing home care
- Technology and tools like magnifiers, braille, labeling techniques, and text-to-speech devices can help clients adapt and be able to perform everyday tasks like reading, cooking, or paying bills
- People of all ages can learn to navigate their homes, neighborhoods, and cities with white canes and techniques that help them stay mobile and independent
- Working-age people are prepared to gain or continue employment with assistive technology, workplace adaptations, and job coaching
