Office supplies with social impact!

About us

Office supplies with social impact! Our mission is to reduce the nearly 70% unemployment rate for people who are blind or visually impaired by providing professional job opportunities and training through our office supply business. 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 places emphasis on our employees who are visually impaired using their abilities to provide viable solutions to our customer’s office supply needs. VIE-Ability.org has over 60,000 office products and all of 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 are checking inventory levels, providing the best possible customer service, managing logistics and making 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 keep 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 over 60,000 high-quality office supplies with free next-day delivery on all of their orders.
