SARAH ORTH
Chief Executive Officer
Blind Children’s Center
With 25 years of experience in the nonprofit sector, Blind Children’s Center’s (BCC) CEO Sarah Orth has dedicated most of her career to agencies focused on early childhood development, and services for children with special needs and chronic illnesses. Orth’s leadership reached a pinnacle with the successful completion of a $7 million capital campaign – an endeavor that transformed the historic BCC facility. Under Orth’s guidance, this renovation doubled the organization’s capacity to serve blind or visually impaired children in an inclusive environment and modernized the campus to meet full ADA compliance.
Orth secured a transformative partnership with the Los Angeles County Office of Education that guarantees tuition-free enrollment for children, ensuring equitable access regardless of ability to pay.
