I never realized how many people are affected with vision impairments. Although looking back on it now, the few experiences that I had were not pleasant ones. Like there was a girl, who was legally blind, went to my high school and shr did some of the most interesting pieces of art I have ever seen.  Or the two people that regularly came in to the grocery store I where I worked.  Every chance I got I jumped up to help them find items, because not only did it get me away from the cashier monotony, but there was always an enjoyable conversation in between finding the right cheese or vegetable. No matter what “impairment” they may have I was never afraid or took pity on them.  They are people just as you and I, and I took pleasure in making their everyday lives easier.

This event is not only about the unique experience but also the unique opportunity to help people in our community out.
