I am a husband to Julie Samaniego, a father of three wonderful children, and I am a Beyond Blindness parent. My middle child, Krew, has been diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Lowe Syndrome and currently receives services from Beyond Blindness.

I am joining a group of over 100 people in growing a moustache in 30 days to support all of the Beyond Blindness kids and their families. Every day Beyond Blindness empowers kids, just like Krew, with visual impairments and other disabilities to achieve their fullest potential.

Beyond Blindness isn’t just providing services to children. They aren’t just helping kids be the best they can be. They are also helping the parents at the same time in an unparalleled manner. We couldn’t have handpicked a better team of individuals to support our family and Krew. They have given us hope and all families hope.
