Construction is currently underway.
We are at day nine of construction and have raised $4,000 within a week’s time. Our goal is to reach $10,000 to cover the expenses of Phase 1 listed above. We are also seeking in kind services from our local community partners, donors and volunteers. All hands on Deck! The blind community needs your help!

wondered what it was like to be blind? Do you know someone who is blind?
This book will explain the hardships of being blind and how you can
help others who are blind. Some help was needed regarding editing as you
can imagine. This book also includes journal entries written 100% by
Eunice on a computer.

Past Events
Gary, IN -- Gary’s classic soul daily music show THE DRIVE FROM 2 P.M. – 5 P.M. will be on the road on Wednesday, October 16 from 1 p.m. – 5 p.m. at The Blind Social Center, 4955 Broadway in Gary in support of Breast Cancer Awareness. The event is also supported by Humana Health. THE DRIVE FROM 2 P.M. – 5 P.M. is a classic soul music featuring the sounds of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. Show hosts Steve Williams and Karen Williams talk music and entertainment on the daily show. “We really wanted to go out and meet our fans and at the same time bring awareness to breast cancer month. We’re going to have fun and we hope that people will bring a donation to the Pink Ribbon Society, too. Almost everyone knows someone or someone family that has been touched by this disease,” said Karen Williams. Williams said they chose The Blind Social Center to host their program because it is a great asset to the community and is a great location. “We want people to come out and have fun and dance and sing. We have so many people who say they listen. This is our way of meeting and greeting them and at the same time have some fun.” Those coming to the event are asked to wear something pink in support of breast cancer awareness.
