Welcome to Students for Sight, a dynamic new school assembly program where students learn about some common causes of blindness and low vision and hear a firsthand account of what it is like to live with impaired vision. Students also have the opportunity to experience what it is like to be a visually impaired student. Students for Sight is a program developed by the Foundation Fighting Blindness to help increase student awareness about blindness and learn about blindness sensitivity.

The Foundation Fighting Blindness is a national non-profit organization that is working to save, restore and protect vision from retinal degenerative diseases. Since 1971, the Foundation Fighting Blindness has raised more than $300 million in support of its mission to find preventions, treatments and cures for many blinding diseases that affect more than ten million people in the United States. The Foundation is the largest non-governmental supporter of retinal disease research in the world.
