Each year, the National Federation of the Blind awards scholarships to recognize achievement by blind and low-vision scholars. Thanks to our generous partners, there are thirty $8,000 merit-based scholarships currently available.

The cash value is only one aspect of this prestigious program. The program also provides funding to travel to and attend the National Federation of the Blind’s national convention with the opportunity to network with more blind students, to exchange information and ideas, and to meet and talk with hundreds of blind people who are successfully working in many occupations and professions.
