The mission of Northwest Association for Blind Athletes (NWABA) is to provide life-changing opportunities through sports and physical activity to individuals who are blind and visually impaired. The organization was founded in 2007 by Billy Henry at age 15 to ensure that people who are blind were participating in sports and physical activity. NWABA served 6 students in its first year, and today, it is a rapidly expanding 501(c)(3) charitable organization that provides more than 1,500 children, youth, adults and military veterans with visual impairments tailored programming. This programming improves self-confidence, promotes independence, creates an inclusive community of supporters, and builds the skills necessary to succeed in all areas of life including school and employment.
