From the stands to the sundae bar—Sunday was a GIANT win for Lighthouse Guild (not so much for the New York Giants who fell to the Green Bay Packers !) 🏈🍦

Thanks to the Blavatnik Family Foundation, who supports all our youth services and programs, three lucky STEP (Saturday Teen Empowerment Program) participants and one of our Tech Pals who teaches technology to older adults with vision loss, experienced an unforgettable day at MetLife Stadium. ✨

💙 Leonard and his dad—lifelong Giants fans—finally got their Big Blue moment.

🔋 Kyle, an adaptative athlete in his own right, brought incredible energy.

🧸 Ariana walked away with a Giants stuffed bear and the biggest smile.

📱 And Vinnie navigated an accessible app to catch every play, putting those Tech Pals skills to work.

To top it all off... 2x Super Bowl champion Ahmad Bradshaw showed and signed autographs! 🏆

The perfect Sunday included food, football, and yes—a perfect sundae bar. 🍨

This is what happens when vision meets opportunity. 👁️💙

Last Saturday, Goldman Sachs volunteers swapped the trading floor for a different type of growth opportunity—helping students with vision loss from Lighthouse Guild's Young Explorers Program get their hands dirty and learn about nature!

The magic? Watching these incredible kids light up as they:

🌿 Planted their own seeds to nurture at home
🌍 Discovered how small actions create big environmental impact
💪 Built confidence through hands-on exploration

Quote that made our day: “I can’t wait to teach my brother how to take care of it!"

To our phenomenal Goldman Sachs volunteers: Thank you for investing your Saturday in growing futures—quite literally. Your partnership helps us prove that vision loss doesn't limit a child's ability to explore, learn, and lead. 🙌

These are the moments that matter. These are the seeds of change.

Goldman Sachs friends: We'd love for you to share this with your networks! 💚

This Veterans Day, we honor all who have served — and the many veterans who are part of our Lighthouse Guild community.

At GuildCare, Lighthouse Guild’s Adult Day Healthcare Program, veterans and other adults living with vision loss find friendship, purpose, and connection every day.

One of them is Mario, a proud U.S. Navy veteran who says the friends he’s made at GuildCare reminds him of his time in service:

"The veterans I’ve met here, who served in the Navy, Army, and Marines — we've built a special bond. We play pool, sing songs from back in our day, recount stories, and look out for one another. We’ve become brothers, and I couldn’t imagine life without them."

Join us in celebrating Mario and all veterans who have dedicated their lives to our country. 🎖🏵

Today is White Cane Safety Day! Since 1964, October 15 has been a day to acknowledge the independence that white canes represent for people who are blind and visually impaired. While technology has definitely improved mobility and navigation over the decades, the white cane is still a staple for the blind and low vision community. Remember, your cane can be customized! There are many ways to make your cane your own, from custom lights to 'bling' that shows off your favorite teams, bands, and more!
