student and Legacy Society member</span></strong><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br> <br>I’ve been a part of the blind and visually impaired community throughout my life, through my mother, who was a Teacher of the Visually Impaired, as well as family, friends and volunteer work. I’ve long known of the positive impact that organizations like LightHouse have on people’s lives. A couple of years ago, I became involved in the community in a new way, as a visually impaired person. I came to LightHouse for help and gained firsthand knowledge of the life-changing services LightHouse offers. Vision changes can be devastating. LightHouse provided me with the services I needed to get my life back.<br> <br>The skills training and peer support at LightHouse were great. Yet one thing bothered me: there is sometimes a waitlist for services. Nothing is more frustrating than to get to the point where you’re ready to move forward, and then have to wait.<br> <br>I’ve always believed in giving where your heart is and where you see the greatest need. So, when I was planning my estate, I thought of other visually impaired or blind people who may be waiting to start training at LightHouse. Working with an estate attorney and a financial advisor, I structured a gift to LightHouse for after I am gone, a gift that will help LightHouse serve the blind and visually impaired community well into the future. My mission for LightHouse is more people served and fewer waiting for services. I’m working toward this mission through my planned gift. Planning a gift creates possibilities, not just for LightHouse, but also for those people who are waiting to get their lives back. <br> <br>Our next workshop is Wednesday, February 17, 2021. Want to learn how you can plan your estate and what the benefits of becoming a member of the LightHouse Legacy Society are?<br> <br>Join us for our next Estate Planning Workshop via Zoom on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 at 5:30 pm. Our special guest, estate planning attorney David Yu, will present and will answer your questions. Jerry Kuns, longtime donor to the LightHouse, will tell us why he joined the LightHouse Legacy Society.

Lunar New Year that is.<br> <br>Lunar New Year is the beginning of a calendar year where the months are cycles of the moon and is celebrated in many East and South Asian countries. In San Francisco, where LightHouse is headquartered, Lunar New Year has been celebrated by the Chinese American community since the 1860s. There are twelve Chinese Zodiac signs, each one being an animal. Each lunar year is assigned an animal in a repeating twelve-year cycle. This Lunar New Year, which falls on February 12 on the Gregorian calendar, is the Year of the Ox. The ox symbolizes attributes such as confidence and determination.<br> <br>This year, our <a href="https://lighthouse-sf.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f40e17a83bbae60b5969a0798&id=9e59e2a113&e=d4dd5f649a"><span style="color:#007c89">Adaptations Store</span></a> is selling a Lunar New year tactile greeting card, designed in-house by our <a href="https://lighthouse-sf.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f40e17a83bbae60b5969a0798&id=7b696aa231&e=d4dd5f649a"><span style="color:#007c89">Media and Accessible Design Lab</span></a>.

This monthly event was created for people who have been experiencing changes in their vision and have noticed that this has begun to affect their daily life. I know from experience that it is not necessary to live with the stress and fear of not having the right tools. I wish that I had known about LightHouse when I was growing up to prepare me for my later years without vision. This is a safe and welcoming place to come and ask the questions you need answers to. I’ll share with you the great things that LightHouse has to offer that will help you become more independent, confident, and self-reliant.<br> <br>Each month we also focus on a different program to let you know what is new and exciting at LightHouse. For the January event, our guest will be Kate Williams, LightHouse Director of Employment Services, which is now being offered nationally via Zoom. Come talk to Kate about what her team has been doing to assist people who are blind or have low vision to join the workforce. Our Employment team provides a thorough assessment of the needs of each individual as they enter the program. Employment Specialists guide students through complex topics such as creating a dynamic resume, writing compelling cover letters, preparing for interviews, disclosing their disability and requesting accommodations. Students work individually to master these skills while they build a network.<br> <br>We’ll also be joined by Raqi Gomez, manager of our <a href="https://lighthouse-sf.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f40e17a83bbae60b5969a0798&id=ab37b6aaf6&e=d4dd5f649a"><span style="color:#007c89">Adaptations Store</span></a>.
