For nearly a century, AFB has led efforts to expand possibilities for people with vision loss. We've done it by pushing the boundaries of technology while fighting continuously for policies that eradicate barriers to learning, employment, and full participation in society. The resulting breakthroughs have been nothing short of transformative. AFB remains a champion of possibilities — an incubator of breakthroughs — the more outsized and ambitious the better. We're proud of our history—and we want to keep making history with you, together. Your support makes breakthroughs possible, and your donation makes a difference.
