Hands On Atlanta is excited to bring on-demand volunteering opportunities to the ATL through a partnership with Be My Eyes. It's now easier than ever to support the visually impaired.
SEE THE WORLD TOGETHER
Be My Eyes is a free mobile app with one main goal: to make the world more accessible for blind and low-vision people. The app connects blind and low-vision individuals with sighted volunteers and companies from all over the world through a live video call.
How it Works
Someone who is visually impaired and in need of assistance will open the open and make their request.
Volunteers will get a notification on their phone with details about the request and the support needed.
Volunteers can respond to the request with a video call (think Skype or Facetime) and solve the problem in real-time.
