A school-age boy needed special software for his computer in order to complete his assignments. His mother went in search of help. A young woman was preparing to move into her own apartment. Her mother wanted to make sure that if someone were to come to the front door, her daughter, who has a disability, would be able to see who was on the other side before opening it. Where could she turn for assistance? A man in his 70s with a vision problem hadn’t read his mail in years. A hand-held magnifier that could be adjusted to different powers was needed. What could he do? These are a few examples of the types of needs Sandi Baker tries to fill through Visual Innovations and Solutions, a Daytona Beach-based nonprofit established in 2007.
