Get Involved - Volunteer

The New Hampshire Association for the Blind was established in 1912 by Mrs. Emma Coolidge Weston, a woman with vision loss from Hancock,
New Hampshire and two friends who were also blind. For the first 50 years of its existence, the Association relied exclusively on volunteers to carry out its mission. It would be impossible to name every single volunteer who has, through their caring and personal sacrifice, reached out to help NH citizens with vision loss during these past 100 years! Focusing on the volunteers of today, there are about 100 fine men and women who donate their time and talents to make a difference.

Thank you so much for all you do. It is an honor and a privilege to support you as you help carry out the mission of the NH Association for the Blind.
“To advance the independence of persons who are blind and visually impaired.”
