We’ve taken flight and now we’re sharing a behind‑the‑scenes look at a special visit from Anaheim Ducks goaltenders Lukas Dostal and Petr Mrázek! 🦆🥅

From a successful attempt at brailling their names to meaningful moments connecting with Beyond Blindness students, we loved spending the afternoon sharing our mission and impact across Orange County.

For every regular season save made by Ducks goalies at Honda Center, $30 will be donated to Beyond Blindness, thanks to the combined support of the Anaheim Ducks Foundation, Circle K, and contributions from the incredible goaltenders themselves.

Thank you to the Anaheim Ducks , Ducks Foundation and Circle K for helping raise awareness of the important work we do in the Orange County community.

At Beyond Blindness, we’re committed to helping youth with visual impairments discover their leadership potential. Our new Leadership Academy brought that mission to life!

This year, Beyond Blindness launched the first-ever Leadership Academy, bringing students with visual impairments (and their siblings!) together to learn, connect, and grow. Through hands‑on activities, guest speakers, and real-world advocacy tools, they built the foundations of leadership that will last a lifetime.

Congratulations to our very own Orientation & Mobility Specialist, Calyssa, who completed Foundation for Blind Children's Stride for Sight over the weekend! 🚶🏻‍♀️

"It was an amazing opportunity, especially knowing they’d supported Beyond Blindness. I loved trying human guiding, and I’d absolutely do it again with a runner who is blind or visually impaired."

This event brought together runners and walkers to support the programs of our friends at Foundation for Blind Children. We're proud to see our team support likeminded organizations who are committed to providing essential programs for individuals who are blind or visually impaired.
