“It’s such an honor to be recognized by VISIONS, particularly to be among this distinguished group of honorees. We are proud to be able to support the incredible work they do, both by providing financial assistance with grants, as well as bringing volunteers to their Rockland facility to help with various projects,” said Fattizzi.
VISIONS is a 97-year-old vision rehabilitation and social service organization dedicated to assisting people of all ages who are blind or visually impaired to lead independent and active lives in their communities. It also strives to educate the public to understand the capabilities and needs of people who are blind or visually impaired.
