Who We Are

Founded in 1952, the Foundation for Blind Children (FBC) is a national leader that creates opportunities for anyone with vision loss. Serving the blind and visually impaired of all ages, from birth to currently 102 years old, our mission is to provide education, tools and services that enable all persons with vision loss to achieve greater independence. Our vision is to have a world where vision loss is a diagnosis, not a disability.

The Foundation for Blind Children has become a national model for agencies serving the blind and visually impaired.  The FBC is a seamless cohesive support system throughout the age continuum, providing a unique and comprehensive system of services, including training, assistive technology, education, counseling and communication. The FBC has the largest pre-school for blind children in the nation, currently serving more than 75 students on three campuses.

At FBC, we value the following above all else:

• Exceptional Service
• Advocacy
• Community Partnerships
• Financial Responsibility
