Ways to Support Lighthouse of Pinellas

Living without depending on others starts with you.

Since 1956, the Lighthouse of Pinellas has been a safe haven for individuals with blindness and vision loss. But our work has never been more relevant or vital than it is today. A study by the National Eye Institute stated that one in three Americans over the age of 65 will be faced with a vision-impairing eye disease. It’s a staggering statistic, and the need for Lighthouse services have never been greater.

New vision technology, smart phones and apps have changed the game for people with vision impairments. A new level of independence is a reality and many residents are looking to the Lighthouse for training. Make a donation today to support people in our community with vision loss so they can achieve their  dream to work and live independently.
