Our Global Scholars Program
Team See Possibilities’ Global Scholars Program is designed to help alleviate a part of the financial burden for students with visual impairments in their college expenses, as we believe these students have enough to worry about in navigating classes, professors, and the social environment of college. Through a detailed process, our selection committee selects students each year who have the will, aptitude, and grit to be successful in a rigorous post-secondary education path and who have the ability to act as role models in the community. As an enhancement of our Scholars Program, we created a Mentorship Program which exists to assist our Scholars through the transition from high school to college, as well as help them create tangible career pathways for their future. We want to tangibly impact the statistic that over 70% of working age adults with visual impairments are unemployed through career development, meaningful mentorship, and the needed support to thrive in both higher education and the work force. With the connections of many highly accomplished individuals representing a wide range of career fields who also have visual impairments, we have created a private discussion forum with the goal of creating the leaders of the future in the blind and visually impaired community.
