[NFBofSC] Free White Cane

[Steve Cook]

Free White Cane Program

The white cane allows you to travel independently and safely-no blind person
should be without one. We offer you a free one. You can order a new one
every six months.

 

The National Federation of the Blind has distributed nearly 100,000 free
white canes since 2008.

 

A blind man helps a blind girl use her long white cane.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.

 

Your gift of a white cane could not have come at a better time for me! My
wonderful wife of forty-three years, who has Alzheimer's, has moved to an
assisted living facility. The only place I could find to get a cane was a
fourteen hour round trip for me and I can't drive anymore. What you have
done for me I will remember for the rest of my life.
