Vision Beyond Sight, a dining in the dark experience featuring Kodi Lee, raises $250,000 for children with visual impairments!

​On Thursday, February 27, 2020, the Blind Children’s Learning Center held its third annual Vision Beyond Sight fundraising event. ​Over 515 guests dined with blindfolds in a darkened museum space to step in the world of children who is blind or visually impaired. America’s Got Talent 2019 Champion and BCLC Alum then inspired the record crown with a concert. The event raised nearly $250,000 through sponsorships, ticket sales, and a live fundraiser. Event revenue will provide direct services to hundreds of children and families, as well as fuel a new strategic plan to offer more comprehensive, and continuous care to meet emerging needs and support a greater number of families.

Thank you to our incredible sponsors and supporters for making this a night that will change lives for the better!
