Future In Sight

What Future In Sight does

Future In Sight is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization operating under the legal name New Hampshire Association for the Blind, headquartered at 25 Walker Street in Concord, New Hampshire. It provides education, rehabilitation, and social services to children, adults, and elderly individuals in New Hampshire who are blind or visually impaired, and has been operating for over 100 years. Its service portfolio is delivered by licensed and certified low vision professionals and includes adult services (22-elderly), youth services (birth-24), Silver Retreats (a 5-day immersive program for adults 55+ with severe vision impairment), adjustment-to-blindness counseling, braille transcription, accessible phone provisioning through the NH-TEAP program, volunteer transportation, group activities and workshops, and partnership programs with New Hampshire school districts. The organization also produces ancillary products such as large-print calendars for purchase and operates an annual Walk for Sight community fundraising event.

The underlying service model is human-led clinical and educational delivery rather than a technology product platform. Intake occurs through multiple channels: healthcare provider referrals, patient self-referrals, school district partnerships, and community outreach, with services delivered in-home, in-school, and at the Concord headquarters. The organization's technology footprint centers on assistive technology provisioning for clients (accessible phones, braille transcription, guidance on assistive devices) rather than on proprietary software or AI systems; no app, API, SDK, or AI/ML capability is disclosed. Marketing and community engagement run through social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, X, YouTube), a monthly e-newsletter called The Monthly Magnifier, blog content, and community events.

The business model is that of a community-based nonprofit. Revenue is generated through donations and charitable contributions (with an online giving portal hosted via Classy), grants, fundraising events such as Walk for Sight, and ancillary product sales such as large-print calendars. Specific pricing for services is not publicly disclosed, and no revenue figure is disclosed in available sources. The organization does not have a parent company, private equity backing, or institutional investment ownership structure, and operates as an independent 501(c)(3) serving a single state (New Hampshire).

Broad incumbents

• Lighthouse Guild: National nonprofit offering low-vision care, behavioral health, and rehabilitation services across multiple U.S. locations. Broader geographic reach and integrated healthcare positioning than Future In Sight, but overlapping core low-vision rehabilitation mission.
• National Federation of the Blind: Nationwide advocacy and member-driven organization for blind Americans. Not a direct service provider at Future In Sight's scale but a key peer in mission scope, peer-support programming, and BVI community engagement.
• American Foundation for the Blind: National nonprofit focused on advocacy, research, and resources for the BVI community. Operates at national scope rather than regional service delivery, but shapes the policy and funding environment in which Future In Sight operates.

Direct peers

• The Chicago Lighthouse: Chicago-area nonprofit providing low-vision clinical care, rehabilitation, education, and employment services for people who are blind or visually impaired. Comparable programmatic breadth (clinical, education, employment, assistive tech) at a larger urban scale.
• Perkins School for the Blind: Massachusetts-based nonprofit providing education, rehabilitation, and assistive technology services for children and adults who are blind. Comparable in school-district partnership work, youth services, and broader rehabilitation scope, though anchored in a campus model.
• Lighthouse for the Blind (Seattle): Regional nonprofit providing rehabilitation, training, and employment services for people who are blind or low vision in the Pacific Northwest. Comparable regional BVI services operating model to Future In Sight.
• Outlook Nebraska: State-level nonprofit serving Nebraskans who are blind or visually impaired with rehabilitation, assistive technology, and youth services. Highly comparable structure to Future In Sight as a single-state BVI services organization.
• Cincinnati Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired: Regional nonprofit providing low-vision rehabilitation, counseling, and independent living services to BVI individuals in the Cincinnati region. Closely comparable operating model, funding mix, and service breadth to Future In Sight's adult/youth/senior programs.
• Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired: Michigan-based nonprofit offering low-vision exams, rehabilitation, youth services, and assistive technology to BVI residents. Mirrors Future In Sight's portfolio of licensed-professional-delivered, in-home and community-based BVI services.

Others

• VisionServe Alliance: National network of nonprofit agencies serving people with vision loss. Not a direct competitor, but a peer ecosystem organization that Future In Sight could leverage for benchmarking, grant collaboration, and shared services.
