Founded in 1993, the mission of the Indiana Blind Children’s Foundation (IBCF) is to empowers Indiana youth who are blind or have low vision to reach their full potential by providing year-round resources and support to the youth and their families. IBCF is a philanthropic foundation that financially supports the unique work of the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired.

Over the past 175 years, the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired has developed substantial and unique expertise regarding the education of students who are blind and visually impaired. The School has established itself as a nationally-recognized educational institution and a critical state resource for Indiana’s children. Every year, the School educates hundreds of Indiana’s children and young adults ranging from ages 3 to 22 years old and living in all parts of the state

About the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired

View of the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually ImpairedThe Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ISBVI) educates and invests in many children that, due to severe or multiple disabilities, no other school can serve. Through its outreach initiatives, ISBVI provides services to hundreds of children and young adults throughout the state who are blind and visually impaired but are not enrolled at the School.

ISBVI is an indispensable resource for anyone involved in educating a child who is blind or visually impaired. The School is frequently recognized nationally by peer schools for its best practices. It is the only residential school for the blind and visually impaired in Indiana and is one of the largest schools for the blind and visually impaired in the country.
