“They Believed in Me, So I Could Believe in Myself.”
Patricia grew up hearing she would never have a family, never live on her own, and never have a job because she is visually impaired. She believed all of this to be true, until she came to The Chicago Lighthouse. Now, Patricia is the Business Manager of our Low Vision Clinic. She owns a house, has two children, and helps support her entire family. See how The Chicago Lighthouse changed her life in the video below.
Please consider donating to The Chicago Lighthouse and supporting our 40 programs and services that help people like Patricia who are blind, visually impaired, disabled and Veterans build the confidence to pursue their dreams.
Together, we shine brighter.
PATRICIA–“Now, I have a job. I own a house. I’ve raised two children, and I am able to assist my family in every aspect that they need.”
