NDU traveled out to Portland, Oregon last week for the Blinded Veterans Association’s annual convention. Despite the long hours in the exhibit hall, we managed to squeeze in some fun while we were out west! It was great to finally meet some of our west coast customers — thanks for making the trip down to see us!

If you haven’t heard of BVA, here is a little information about the organization:

The Blinded Veterans Association (BVA) is an organization of blinded veterans helping blinded veterans. Through our service programs, regional groups, resources, and advocacy before the legislative and executive branches of government, we hope to make life better for blinded veterans. We also hope to be there with encouragement and support. There is no charge for any BVA service and membership is not a prerequisite to obtain help. All legally blinded veterans are also eligible for BVA’s assistance whether they become blind during or after active duty military service.
