    # 1/08 JAN|FEB KAPU ZINE EDITORIAL Salut! Ich spar mir an dieser Stelle den obligatorischen Jahresrückblick! Straight forward lautet die Devise und ich persönlich freu mich auf das kommende Jahr. Programmatisch starten wir mit einer, meiner Meinung nach, durchaus gelungenen Mischung. Neben einigen internationalen Acts, auf die ihr euch schon freuen könnt, kommen auch österreichische und vor allem Linzer MusikerInnen nicht zu kurz, die mindestens die gleiche Aufmerksamkeit verdienen. Zum ersten mal wird Ende Fe- bruar das O-Heim-Mini-Winter-Festival stattfinden. Stationen sind die STWST und die KAPU, die sich neben dem Verein „Open Air Ottensheim“ fürs Programm ver- antwortlich zeigen. Aber das Programm könnt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten ja in aller Ruhe nachlesen. Was passiert ansonsten in der neuen KAPU-Saison? Jahreswechsel ziehen ja meist große Vorsätze und Pläne mit sich. Das ist bei uns nicht anders. Ein Bisschen sei schon mal verraten... Wir sind wie immer voller Wahnsinnsideen und Tatendrang! Für den Jahresanfang stehen zwei Projekte an. Einerseits wird die KAPUtique ihr virtuelles Dahinsiechen endgültig hinter sich lassen und in neuem Glanze im ehemaligen Fiftitu%-Büro im 1. Stock auferstehen. Das Ganze wird natürlich gebührend gefeiert; doch mehr dazu weiter hinten. Ebenfalls geplant ist eine „offene KünstlerInnenwerkstätte“; einen genauen Zeitplan dafür gibt es leider bis zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt noch nicht. Doch was nicht ist, das kann noch werden. Gebt uns noch ein wenig Zeit und dann werdet ihr auch über Details und Nutzungsmöglichkeiten umgehend informiert (KAPUzine LeseInnen sind ja immer vorn dabei! Auch wenn es diesmal etwas später kommt, doch auch DruckerInnen verdienen Feier- tagsurlaub.) Ebenfalls in Planung ist ein neuer KAPU-Sampler; die ersten Bands sind angeheuert, die Diskussion um den Titel ist nach kämpferischen Aus- einandersetzungen abgeschlossen und wir sind gespannt, wer aller seinen/Ihren Weg auf diese kleine silberne Scheibe findet.

  • Defining Success 2018 ANNUAL REPORT Ii | PERKINS SCHOOL for the BLIND
    Defining success 2018 ANNUAL REPORT ii | PERKINS SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND From the CEO and Board Chair At Perkins School for the Blind, success is a journey made up of both big and small moments: a hard-won epiphany in math class, a needed connection with a career mentor, the discovery of a new app that helps with mobility. It’s those moments that reassure families, students and educators that success is worth fighting for, and fuel our motivation to make the world a more inclusive place for everyone. In its 189th year, we at Perkins are focusing on success: the roads toward it, the vehicles that empower it and the ways our students embody it. Without a doubt, much work remains to ensure all children have access to a quality education and the opportunities to fulfill their potential. For us, success is not just a single, triumphant end goal. Your generous support — through donations, through time, through advocacy — is what makes this success possible. Without you, there is no Perkins. Without you, there is no impact to the blind community. With your help, we’re making changes and helping people with visual impairments build success all over the world. And the small moments of discovery and achievement are just as valuable and worthy as the big milestones. In these divisive times, we’re taking action. Your support allows us to advance this critical work in the world and help students to continue succeeding now and into the future. Warmly, Top: A student shows Dave Power a braille machine at Kilimani Primary School in Nairobi, Kenya.
