The next time you’re at Logan International Airport, waiting patiently at your boarding gate or jostling to grab your suitcase at baggage claim, look up. You’ll see a different kind of public service announcement – courtesy of Perkins School for the Blind.

In between news updates and weather reports, video screens throughout the airport are airing thought-provoking videos produced by BlindNewWorld, Perkins’ social change campaign that encourages greater inclusion for people with blindness.

The videos, which have already appeared online, will reach a new audience at Logan Airport, where 3 million passengers a month pour through its four terminals.

“We’re very excited to be reaching so many people through this partnership with Logan Airport,” said Perkins President and CEO Dave Power. “Our hope is that people will watch the videos and be inspired to learn more about the amazing potential of people with blindness.”
