Office Supplies with Social Impact

The Cincinnati Association for the Blind & Visually Impaired launched VIE Ability (formerly Cincy Sight) in 2013 in an effort to provide more professional-level job opportunities to people who had established careers but unexpectedly lost their vision later in life. The name VIE Ability emphasizes our employees who are visually impaired using their abilities to provide viable solutions to our customers' office supply needs.

VIE-Ability.org has over 50,000 office products, and our office supply operations are run by people who are blind or have severe vision loss. Every time someone places an office supply order, our employees check inventory levels, provide the best possible customer service, manage logistics, and make sure the orders are on a truck for next-day delivery. They do all of this with the help of advanced computer magnification and screen reading software.

We rely on steady orders from our customers to maintain a consistent workload for our employees. Orders equal work and training that our employees need to gain skills to be competitive in the workplace. Aside from the social impact purchases make, our customers also receive competitive pricing on more than 50,000 high-quality office supplies with next-day delivery on all of their orders.
