JEWISH INSTITUTE FOR THE BLIND

JIB was officially founded in 1902. It has since grown into a widely respected Jerusalem landmark located in Kiryat Moshe, operating a school serving children from 6 to 21 years old, and a broad array of extracurricular activities and supportive programs all aimed at educating, enriching, and empowering children, teens and young adults living with blindness to lead independent, dignified, and meaningful lives devoid of crippling dependency... JIB is a unique organization in that it absolutely guarantees its benefactors transformational impact, because every child with blindness that is guided through our school and enrichment and supportive programs develops an ability to learn, function independently, and a positive self-image and confidence. At JIB, we encourage each and every one of our children and teens, to actualize their full-potential and become a contributing member of their respective communities and society as a whole... We operate a school for visually impaired children..
