Volunteer Ambassadors

Future In Sight is currently seeking volunteers to participate as a member of one of its 3 Regional Advisory Committees. These three Advisory Committees meet once a month to raise our profile and help expand services to a growing market, despite limited resources. Through these committees, the members act as ambassadors for the organization by helping to identify and plan fundraising events, reaching out, spreading awareness and presenting information about blindness and low vision to members of the community at large so they will develop a better understanding of the mission of Future In Sight.
