My Nonprofit Reviews

Having been in the eye care field for 14 years as a practicing optometrist, I can not explain how valuable the service this foundation provides to the young recipients of the guide dogs. There is nothing worse than to tell a parent and child that there is nothing else we can do to help them. Occupational Therapy as well as Orientation and Mobility training will take you only so far. It does not provide the independence that a guide dog will! It is really shocking that there are no other organizations like Mira Foundation out there servicing kids with this disability. I commend them for the work and effort they put into this! I am not sure if any sighted person can truly understand what a guide dog will do for the confidence, independence, security, and self esteem of a visually impaired child.
