[nabs-l] What to do with a broken cane?

[Jim Reed]

Hey all, 

I was about to throw away my broken cane, but before I do so, I wanted to check with you all to make sure there is nothing else that can be done with it. For example, are there any organizations that refurbish blind equipment? If so,  my cane only needs to be soddered and re-tipped, it would be nearly as good as new.  I'm sure a poor blind guy in the U.S. or overseas would be happy to have it.

Keep me with stern and stubborn pride,
And when at last the fight is won, 
... Keep me still unsatisfied." --Louis Untermeyer
