Description

Many people dream of traveling around the world, but often feel constrained by money and other factors. For the blind and visually impaired community, Flight for Sight helps to remove this barrier by offering three $10,000 grants to make that dream come true!   Join Blind Abilities podcast host Simon Bonenfant in the virtual studio as he speaks with Flight for Sight founder and Executive director Mike Walsh, as well as Eliana Mayson, one of the inaugural grant winners. They discuss what led to the formation of the organization.   Eliana takes the microphone to discuss her journey as a professional goal ball player and mental health professional, and how she was able to use both of those unique skills to make a huge impact during her travel journey.   They also discuss one of the biggest applications criteria: creating personalized content along the trip such as blogs, podcasts, videos, etc.   Think you’d be a good fit to take off around the globe?
