The Program for the Blind, offered by a foundation, focuses on providing grants to nonprofit organizations in Rhode Island that work in the realm of vision research, specifically targeting macular degeneration, and offering support services for the visually impaired. These services include guide dogs, summer camps for children with low-vision and blindness, among others. The grant prioritizes projects that aim towards the economic self-sufficiency of visually impaired individuals, innovative solutions for blindness or vision loss, and research-based solutions for conditions causing vision loss. Grants range from $10,000 to $75,000 for research and support services
