<DIV>The National Federation of the Blind will once again be celebrating
White
Cane Awareness Day on Monday, October 15. This year is extra special because
we
are also celebrating the tenth anniversary of our free white cane program.
Your
support of this program has enabled us to distribute over 64,000 free white
canes to blind people. Please help us continue to give the gift of
independence
by making a donation on October 15.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>White canes help blind people live the lives we want. The white cane
does
more than tell the sighted that we are blind. It is a tool for freedom and
self-determination because it allows blind people to come and go on our own.
Since we can travel safely and independently, we can contribute in the
workplace, in our communities, and in society.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>As I progressed through my cane travel training, I began to see both
physical and metaphysical changes. I was determined to gain the skills I saw
others employ with familiarity and grace. My face no longer tilted down
towards
the ground. The warmth of the sun was on my face. I gained freedom, I gained
independence, I gained myself.</DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>Join us in celebrating White Cane Awareness Day. Your contribution will
help fund things like free white canes, and help more blind people discover
the
freedom of independent travel, confidence, and so much more. You
can: </DIV>
<DIV>1. Visit our donate page at nfb.org/donate2018</DIV>
<DIV>2. Mail your contribution to: National Federation of the Blind, 200
East
Wells Street, Baltimore, MD 21230</DIV>
<DIV>3. Share our message on social media by using the #WhiteCaneGiving

<DIV>THANK YOU!</DIV>
<DIV>The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines blind people or their future. Every day we raise
the
expectations of and for blind people, because low expectations create
obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. We can live the lives we want;
blindness is
not what holds us back. Please join us in our work by becoming a member,
attending an event, sharing this message, or supporting our
programs.
