An einen Herrn Percy MacKaye in New York bezüglich ihrer Hilfe „to my 6.000 deaf-blind fellows“: „I am indeed happy to inform you that the American Foundation for the Blind now is expanding services of benefit to my 6,000 deaf-blind fellows. Heretofore, a few hundred found bright oases of help and understanding in scattered schools and agencies. […] Try to imagine, if you can, the anguish and horror you would experience bowed down by the twofold weight of blindness and deafness. still throbbing with natural emotions and desires, you would feel through the sense of touch the existence of a living world, and desperately but vainly you would seek an escape into its healing light.

On behalf of the "American Foundation for Overseas Blind" to one Mr. Fabry, regarding a donation for blind children at South Korea: "We who love peace must recognize our eternal indebtedness to the gallant people of South Korea for their bitter sacrifices during the war so recently ended [...] The Foundation has already established a fine school and training center for [Korea's blind youngsters] outside Pusan. There and at the new Taegu School for the Blind and Deaf 250 handicapped young people, inspired with firm faith and dauntless courage, are learning to break through the barriers off darkness and silence [...] Yet Korean government records list a total of 50,000 sightless children [...]". - On stationery with printed letterhead of the "American Foundation for Overseas Blind".
