Joey’s Website Tour: Exploring Vision Nonprofit

This morning, Joey had a spark of inspiration—completely on his own, he decided to create a mini website tour for Vision Nonprofit! He walks viewers through a few key pages and then dives into the stories section, where he highlights his story about Jupiter. His excitement for sharing and storytelling shines through as he encourages everyone to check it out.

Joey has been learning about content creation, and this video is another step in his journey. From filming and narrating to structuring a simple walkthrough, he’s exploring how to share information in an engaging way. It’s incredible to see him take the initiative, and we love that he’s combining his love for technology with Vision Nonprofit’s mission.

Beyond just making a video, Joey is gaining confidence in sharing his voice. Creating content like this helps him develop skills in communication, presentation, and digital storytelling—things that will benefit him in so many ways. It also shows how much he cares about Vision Nonprofit and the work being done to help other kids with low vision. His journey is not just about learning tech but about making an impact.

We’re so proud of Joey for putting this together, and we hope you’ll take a moment to watch, support, and encourage him as he hones his skills. Check out the video and let us know what you think!
