Review for Beyond Blind Institute Inc, Jupiter, FL, USA
Less than 2% of those with visual impairment or blindness are born with this tragedy. Most individuals are stricken with visual impairment or blindness through an accident or disease. When this occurs they lose their identity and often their own self worth.
I experienced this personally through a close friend that lost his eye sight at the tender age of 9. It forever changed his life and exposed him to trials and tribulations like no one would ever imagine. He was virtually ignored in society, but he never gave up. The sad reality is that most blind and visually impaired individuals do give up on their life and often fall into severe depression and addiction.
The beauty of the Beyond Blind Institute is that it takes these individuals out of isolation and illuminates their life. We do this through the comprehensive health and wellness programs that the Beyond Blind Institute has created. People with this terrible tragedy are now working out, cooking, painting, dancing and much, much more.
Please help the Beyond Blind Institute continue these programs and make the world a better place for those who experience blindness and visual impairment. Please visit one of our programs first hand so you may experience the power of our Institute.
