Do you love planning parties and helping children? If so, then please join our event committee to celebrate the Open House of the Blind Center's new Youth Program on Saturday, March 17th. We need volunteers to help with the planning prior to the event as well as on the day of the event. Located at the Blind Center's new 36,000 sq ft facility, Visions of Greatness, the Youth Program will incorporate an Afterschool Enrichment Program exclusively for blind and low vision children as well as a Teen Program. Both programs are designed to inspire and build self-esteem through positive interaction with blind mentors. This event is the perfect volunteer opportunity for groups of 10 or less.

Mission Statement
The Blind Center of Nevada is dedicated to assisting people who are blind or visually impaired in reaching their highest physical, social, intellectual and economic potential, through personal development, social interaction and meaningful employment. We're committed to providing a personal path to hope, independence and the pursuit of greatness for each of our members.
Description
The Blind Center of Nevada is the only full-service day center in Nevada for those of our community who've lost their sight.
Finding Hope: Life doesn’t stop at blindness, but for many, the hopelessness runs deep. We uplift people by providing emotional rescue, a caring shelter, a welcoming community and counseling to help members see beyond their visual impairment. Through the Blind Center of Nevada, people find a loving, social refuge-a place that understands, and truly cares.
Learning Independence: Within our encouraging family environment, we help members see beyond their visual limits and learn to live an independent life. Our skills training, educational resources and ongoing assistance all work together to ignite a can-do-spirit that defies boundaries and fuels personal growth.
Pursuing Greatness: Best of all, our center helps members visualize their true potential and work toward achieving great things. Through a wide range of programs-including music, art, fitness, education, and vocational mentorship-we help people reach goals they can be proud of. Greatness isn’t limited to those with sight. We help members achieve great things while living lives that are unbound-and unlimited.
