Our theme this year is “Healthy Wealthy and Wise!” There is no cost to participate, so we hope you will invite every person you feel may benefit. However, donations are appreciated, and help us assist blind Hoosiers. As an added incentive, for each $20 you donate now through October 8 at 6PM Eastern, your name will be entered in to a drawing to win a like-new Perkins brailler valued at $700.
