Introducing an empowering opportunity for your organization to engage with and support the blind and low vision community while enhancing the financial literacy and independence of your clients or employees.
At Penny Forward, a nonprofit organization founded and led by people with blindness and low vision, we believe that access to tailored financial education is not just a resource but a necessity that fosters independence and confidence. Unfortunately, mainstream financial education is often inaccessible and may omit blindness-specific benefits and concerns, such as Social Security and ABLE accounts. This creates a significant gap for people with blindness or low vision.
Penny Forward addresses these gaps with accessible financial education created for the blind and low vision community and informed by lived experience. Our online courses, financial tools, podcast episodes, and articles and news help people build knowledge and confidence.
By joining our sponsorship program, your organization will demonstrate its commitment to inclusivity and accessibility while benefiting from a suite of educational tools and resources designed to meet the financial needs of blind and low vision individuals. Our sponsorship packages include:
- Exclusive Access to Specialized Online Courses: Give your clients or employees access to our self-paced online courses which are accessible using screen-reading technology, allowing blind and low vision individuals to focus on learning rather than navigating the screen. The content is presented in text instead of videos, with tables and charts specifically designed for non-visual learners. This ensures that everyone can understand and benefit from the material.
- Financial Tools: Give your clients or employees access to practical calculators, guides, and worksheets designed to make financial decisions easier to understand.
- Podcast Episodes: Share accessible conversations about real financial decisions, featuring practical ideas and lived experience.
- Articles & News: Connect your clients or employees with current guidance, stories, and Penny Forward updates.
This is your chance to align your organization with a cause that matters, promoting financial independence and empowerment within the blind community while providing your team with valuable insights and tools to better serve their clients or constituents. Join us in making a meaningful impact and showcase your organization’s dedication to building a more inclusive and financially aware society.
