WHO WE ARE: The TAD Foundation (Together Achieving Dreams) aims to increase employment for the blind and low-vision community by bridging the gap between potential and possibility, focusing on empowering students and job seekers with technical skills, mentorship, and corporate connections to succeed in the private sector.

WHAT WE DO: We are tackling the reality that three out of four blind Americans are job-ready, yet unemployment remains disproportionately high. Through our National Fellowship Program, students gain business skills, professional confidence, and meaningful career opportunities. We partner with companies to demonstrate the value of hiring talented blind and low-vision professionals while supporting their diversity, equity, and inclusion goals. TAD provides strategic pathways and real skill development, not sympathy, empowering blind professionals to thrive.
