Free White Cane Program 

The National Federation of the Blind has distributed more than 64,000 free
white canes since 2008.

The white cane gives blind people the ability to achieve a full and
independent life, allowing us to travel freely and safely. We started our
free white cane program because we believe that no blind person should be
without a white cane, regardless of his or her ability to pay for it.

You can request a Free White Cane at the below link.

Apply for a Free White Cane!
