Each of us has the power to improve the lives of others. And you don’t need to wait a single moment to do so. Just sign up today as a Perkins volunteer and you can help change the lives of people who are blind, deafblind or visually impaired, including those with additional disabilities.
Regardless of your background, skills or area of interest, we always need compassionate and capable individuals to join the Perkins family as volunteers. Whether you have just a few hours to give or are looking for a long-term opportunity, you can truly enrich the lives of the people we serve.
