Perkins School for the Blind

Main Navigation

Our June issue features Camp Abilities Boston, an athletics retreat for kids who are blind or visually impaired. These teens proved you don’t have to see to enjoy sports.

Marty the Perkins SMART Brailler is backpacking across America so that six US families can try him out.

We invite you to learn about our work with local partners, in 67 countries, to transform the lives of individuals, families, and communities around the world.

Make a gift to Perkins before June 30th and help all the children whose lives we’ll touch this summer, and for years to come.
