Randolph-Sheppard Vendors of America ® and the American Council of the Blind both benefit from your Walkathon donation. RSVA® is committed to improving economic opportunities for blind managers and promotes independent and effective participation in the Business Enterprise Program. The purpose is to bring together blind persons engaged in the operation of vending facilities and others supporting us. We work to improve the education and training available to blind managers through two national conferences, the RSVA® sponsored Sagebrush National BEP training Conference and the annual summer RSVA®-ACB conference and provide technical and legal support to managers to ensure rights granted under the Randolph-Sheppard Act are not  limited or voided. We welcome support from the ACB for monitoring actions of legislative and regulatory bodies affecting blind vendors.
