The Future
In order for us to continue to grow and be an industry leader, the Lions World Services for the Blind Board of Directors has decided to pursue the process of building a new, state-of-the-art training facility that, much like our current facility did in the early 60's, will set the standard for rehabilitation facilities all over the world.
LWSB has changed thousands of lives through the years, and we will change thousands more. We see ordinary men and women who come to our center thinking that they can never achieve independence. They come out with confidence, knowing that they can lead independent, full and productive lives.
The Campus
The new facility will be located on a hill, one of the highest points in downtown Little Rock, where we will continue to shine a beacon of hope for those who are blind and visually impaired.
We will build the new LWSB in three phases. The first phase, estimated to cost $25 million, will consist of 132,185 square feet including dormitories that will house up to 100 trainees in private rooms with internet access, a large, 300-seat auditorium, and advanced, state-of-the-art training facilities.
The second phase, estimated to cost $3 million, will consist of an additional 22,935 square feet and will expand the dormitories to house up to 150 trainees.
The third and final phase of building our new facility, estimated to cost $2 million, will add 14,007 square feet for a total square footage of 167,126, including housing in private rooms for up to 200 trainees.
