Seeing With the Heart, Christine Lin and the Eko Vision Foundation
Send us Fan Mail
In this conversation, Christine Lin opens up about the heart behind the Eko Vision Foundation and how love, dignity, and thoughtful technology can truly change lives. She shares the powerful influence of her grandmother Eko, whose experience with blindness shaped not only Christine’s purpose, but the way she thinks about independence, privacy, and care. We talk about why awareness and advocacy matter, how AI can be used responsibly to support the blind and low vision community, and how deeply personal experiences often become the strongest foundation for meaningful leadership. It’s a conversation that asks us to slow down, listen more closely, and rethink how we show up for a community that is so often overlooked, with a clear invitation to learn, support, and do better.
If you want to learn more about Christine and the work she’s doing, or if you feel moved to support the mission with a donation, you can visit https://www.ekovisionfoundation.org/.
