Not only am I employed by IFB Solutions, but I also strongly believe in their mission. If it hadn’t been for IFB, I would not be employed at this moment. I love what I do and everyone I work with. IFB allows me to help others. It’s nice to be on the giving end for a change rather than the receiving end. I strongly believe if I can work, then anyone can!

For people who are blind, it is a challenge to find a safe place to walk and become more physically active. Not all gyms are accessible. Braille isn't displayed consistently on gym equipment or recreationally facilities. The cost of a membership is high and transportation can be difficult to navigate. To help our teammates become more physically active, the IFB Solutions leadership team is planning for the best 80th birthday present possible. A walking track that is currently being planned will provide an easily accessible and safe place for people who are blind to get out and get moving. Creating the walking track is a multistage project. It will include creation of a walking path, benches, sensory gardens, and a shaded picnic area for our employees to enjoy during their breaks or after their shifts. The track will be both white cane and guide dog friendly.
