Not My Eyes Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to empowering individuals who are blind or visually impaired. Through fashion, education, technology access, career development, and community engagement, we create opportunities for individuals with vision loss to build confidence, develop skills, and pursue greater Independence.
