The Center for Vision Health would like to wish a very special birthday to Helen Keller, an icon in the deafblind community and an inspiration to us all! To commemorate her birthday today, we wanted to share a few fun facts with you!
Helen Keller was born on June 27th, 1880, which means that we will be celebrating her 141st birthday! She lived an extraordinary life, having accomplished a wealth of achievements while overcoming numerous hardships. In 1904, Keller was the first deafblind individual in America to earn a university degree, when she graduated from Harvard University’s Radcliffe College with a Bachelor of Arts! In 1915, she co-founded the American Foundation for the Overseas Blind, in order to support War World I Veterans who had been blinded in combat. With this foundation, she visited 35 countries over the course of 11 years to advocate for those who were affected by blindness and vision impairment. Keller was also a political advocate, as she co-founded the American Civil Liberties Union in 1920, and campaigned to expand the rights of women and the working class. She even won an Academy Award for her work in the documentary "Helen Keller in Her Story", a biographical film about her life and achievements!
The Center for Vision Health is dedicated to providing quality care to those with low vision needs, and our mission has been greatly inspired by Helen Keller’s work. If you would like to learn more about her extraordinary life, feel free to visit the Helen Keller International website at hki.org. Happy birthday Ms. Keller!
