Penny Forward INC, a leading Minnesota-based 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization founded and run by people who are blind, is proud to announce an updated version of the Penny Forward app. Developed in partnership with Wells Fargo and World Services for the Blind, Penny Forward Mobile Version 1.2.0 provides access to financial education for the estimated 32 million blind and low vision Americans across the country.

The Penny Forward app provides an inclusive platform where blind and low vision users can effortlessly access news articles, podcast episodes, an events calendar, and online courses tailored to the unique needs of the blind and low vision community. This groundbreaking initiative aims to bridge the information gap and empower individuals with the necessary tools and knowledge to make informed financial decisions.

New features include:

  • Support for in-app purchases, allowing members to manage their membership through the app.
  • A new, more accessible, learning management system, making online course content even easier to use.

“Any time you introduce a new app or software program, compromises have to be made. Penny Forward mobile is no exception. Our new app is even more accessible while removing some of the compromises that we were forced to make in the initial release,” said Christopher Peterson, the Founder and CEO of Penny Forward. “I’m so excited to be taking the Penny Forward online platform another step forward with the release of this updated app.”

Penny Forward Mobile Version 1.2.0 is now available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
