LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired is a mid-sized nonprofit based in San Francisco, founded in 1902. It supports independence and self-reliance for people who are blind or have low vision by providing skills training and access to essential services, including employment, education, government, information, recreation, transportation, and the environment. The organization also pursues technology development and innovation, and it aims to amplify the voices of blind individuals around the world. Its primary beneficiaries are individuals who are blind or visually impaired, with services designed to improve autonomy and participation across everyday activities and opportunities.
