Penny Forward Sponsorship Packages

Introducing an empowering opportunity for your organization to engage with and support the blind and low vision community while enhancing the financial literacy and independence of your clients or employees.

At Penny Forward, a nonprofit organization founded and led by people with blindness and low vision, we believe that access to tailored financial education is not just a resource but a necessity that fosters independence and confidence. Unfortunately, mainstream financial counseling is often inaccessible and omits critical discussions of blindness-specific benefits and concerns, such as Social Security and ABLE accounts. This oversight leaves a significant gap in the financial education available to individuals with blindness or low vision.

Penny Forward addresses these deficits by providing financial literacy education,  specifically tailored to the blind and low vision community, delivered by counselors who are also blind. This unique approach ensures that our services are not only accessible but also empowering through peer support.

By joining our sponsorship program, your organization will demonstrate its commitment to inclusivity and accessibility while benefiting from a suite of educational tools and resources designed to meet the financial needs of blind and low vision individuals. Our sponsorship packages include:

  • Exclusive Access to Specialized Online Courses: Give your clients or employees  access to our self-paced online courses which are accessible using screen-reading technology, allowing blind and low vision individuals to focus on learning rather than navigating the screen. The content is presented in text instead of videos, with tables and charts specifically designed for non-visual learners. This ensures that everyone can understand and benefit from the material.
  • Weekly Workshops: Give your clients or employees access to weekly group workshops and book discussions that facilitate collective learning and peer support. These sessions help build confidence and equip individuals with the skills to manage their finances independently.
  • Personalized Financial Counseling: Give your clients or employees access to our one-on-one financial counseling, provided by accredited financial counselors who are also blind. This personalized approach ensures that the unique needs and concerns of the blind and low vision community are always at the forefront.

This is your chance to align your organization with a cause that matters, promoting financial independence and empowerment within the blind community while providing your team with valuable insights and tools to better serve their clients or constituents. Join us in making a meaningful impact and showcase your organization’s dedication to building a more inclusive and financially aware society.
