“I lost all my vision in my early twenties; it was a dark time in my life with little hope and uncertainty of what I would do for the rest of my life. Lions Services provided me with a job opportunity 41 years ago which has made a significant impact in my life. The job provided me hope and a steady income that helped me to become a proud homeowner. I was even able to purchase an old red truck that sits in my driveway so my family can drive me around town.”

“I have been vision impaired since birth. I struggled through my school years not knowing what to do with my life. I finally graduated with my BA degree with very little assistance for my disability. Needless to say I was rejected for job after job until one day a friend told me about Lions Services, I have been working at Lions services since 2011. This place is amazing, and it’s given me an opportunity for a very bright future. Working here has allowed me to be confident in my abilities. It’s allowing me the chance to learn skills and has given me the confidence that I am able to sew products that help provide protection for our nation’s troops.”
