At Vision Nonprofit, we believe accessibility should be available to everyone. For students and individuals with low vision, having the right technology can be life-changing. That’s why Apple’s latest iPad accessibility features are such a game-changer—helping users read, learn, and navigate the world more independently.

We are thrilled to share some exciting news—Vision Nonprofit has been awarded a $1,000 grant from the Union Centre Boulevard Merchant Association (UCBMA) to support a student in Butler County who needs assistive technology!

At Vision Nonprofit, we believe that every child deserves access to the tools they need to succeed—especially when it comes to education. Recently, we had the incredible joy of delivering an iPad, free of charge, to Masen, a bright and determined student whose journey with low vision has shaped his unique approach to learning.

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.

Supporting Vision Nonprofit doesn’t have to be complicated. Every action—whether it’s wearing a bracelet, sharing our story, or engaging with our content—helps us continue providing essential technology for children who need it.

At Vision Nonprofit, we’re always looking for ways to help children with low vision access the tools they need to learn with confidence. In today’s video, Joey gives us a classroom tour of the Jupiter Portable Magnifier, a device from the American Printing House designed to help students with low vision read, write, and engage with their schoolwork.

At Vision Nonprofit, we believe that every child deserves the tools and confidence to thrive—no matter their vision abilities. That’s why we’re excited to share Joey’s latest video, "Thriving with Nystagmus," where he talks about his own experience with low vision and offers practical tips to help other kids like him.

Joey has always had a passion for technology, but as a child with low vision, he also understands firsthand the challenges that come with it. When we started Vision Nonprofit, Joey was our very first applicant, and in many ways, he was the one who kicked off this entire mission.

As parents navigating his diagnosis of congenital nystagmus, we saw the impact that having the right technology—like an iPad with accessibility tools—had on his ability to learn, read, and explore the world. We knew other kids could benefit just as much, and that’s how Vision Nonprofit was born.

Joey continues to be a huge part of what we do, sharing his knowledge and excitement for technology with others. His journey inspired this organization, and now, because of him, we’re helping more children get the tools they need to succeed.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey. It all started with one application, and today, we’re reaching so many more kids who deserve the same opportunities. 💙
