Details on what is needed: Beyond Vision has more than 120 years of history serving Wisconsin and the Greater Milwaukee-Area. We specialize in the employment of jobseekers who are legally blind for in-house roles doing manufacturing, assembly, call center, and general business operations. There are up to 200,000 Wisconsinites who face visual impairments. This is a community that is all too often underappreciated and wrongly told that they need to “rethink” their life aspirations. There is still so much work to be done, because roughly 7 out of every 10 adults who are legally blind are unemployed. Nevertheless, Beyond Vision is 1 of only 2 organizations in Wisconsin with the sole mission of providing employment for professionals who are visually impaired. We are not just a place for those who face the challenges of blindness to earn a paycheck. We are a place that empowers people to reach their full potential by focusing on their abilities, not their disabilities. Your support for Beyond Vision is extremely important to our present and future success! Donate today!
