LightHouse Sirkin Center has been a Safer Choice Partner of the EPA since 2019. According to the EPA website, “the Safer Choice program helps consumers and purchasers for facilities, such as schools and office buildings, find products containing chemical ingredients that are safer for human health and the environment.”
 
Chief Operating Officer, Brandon Cox says, “At LightHouse Sirkin Center, we are creating industry-leading cleaning products that are safer for the environment and creating employment opportunities for the blind community. Blind and visually impaired people are involved in each step of the process, from leadership to business development, to research & development, to production and fill line and inventory.”
 
Dr. Charles Umo says “The things we do together, accessible processes, accessible workflows, blending and bottling of high-quality cleaning product: these things are life-changing to blind people. What people thought blind people couldn’t do we are doing it now.”
 
Congratulations to Dr. Umo and to the entire Sirkin Center team!
