About CNIB Foundation:
We are changing what it is to be blind through innovative programs and powerful advocacy that enable Canadians impacted by blindness to live the lives they choose. In the face of today's pandemic the challenges have become even more complex. Imagine not being able to see what six feet apart looks like. Where the arrows on the floor are pointing. How many people are in the elevator.
Your support will provide funding for much needed programs, such as technology and job skills training, and an urgently increased need for CNIB Guide Dogs. It will help to achieve CNIB’s goal to create a better community – a barrier-free community – where every individual, regardless of vision loss, is able to fully participate in the world around them.

 | CNIB Guide Dogs A global pandemic that closes borders and reduces access to guide dogs isn’t something anyone planned for, but with your help, it is something we can overcome. We urgently need your support. Canada is facing a severe shortage of qualified guide dogs because of COVID-19. Travel restrictions and temporary restriction of applications to other Canadian schools have created a guide dog crisis in Canada where the need far exceeds the supply. Harness your power. We need each other now, more than ever. Please take action – make your gift today. Our Goal: $5,000 | $5,000 |
