Welcome to the North Dakota Association of the Blind
We strive to enhance the way of life for people who are blind or visually impaired, to encourage employment opportunities and to educate the public about sight loss. Our vision is for all North Dakotans who are blind or visually impaired to live fulfilling, independent lives.
Giving Hearts Day
The North Dakota Association of the Blind invites you to Be Aware and support us on Giving Hearts Day in 2025!
Giving Hearts Day is February 13 and serves as the major source of funds we rely on to operate our service programs, such as summer camp for adults, recreation retreats for youth and adults, scholarships, and awareness programs that educate and communicate about the realities associated with loss of eyesight.
While Giving Hearts Day is February 13, early giving begins January 13. Those looking to support our all-volunteer nonprofit organization’s efforts to bring community and fulfilling life experiences to the community of blind and sight-impaired North Dakotans can visit givingheartsday.org/donate and search “blind.”
Our priorities
Support
If you want to share your daily challenges or get ideas on how to complete a task using reduced or no vision, local support groups are available offering mentoring and support.
Educate
For students who are pursuing further education, NDAB has scholarships. Learn more about available scholarships here. We are here to help make life more livable.
NDAB provides assistance with learning adaptive daily living skills, and alternative leisure activities. We organize and run a week-long camp where these skills can be developed. Learn more about camp here.
Advocate
We also promote the awareness of sight loss through lobbying, fundraising, and conventions. Without fund raising or donations, NDAB would fail in its mission. If you want to help, you can become a member or make a donation.
