Life is a beautiful, wonderful, complicated thing. Life with blindness should be no different.
Together, we're empowering people with sight loss to lead independent, active lives and chase their dreams – and we’re smashing the stigma and barriers that stand in their way.
Celebrating our centennial in 2018, the CNIB Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that empowers people impacted by blindness to live the lives they choose. Funded by charitable donations and enabled by the selfless contributions of volunteers, our innovative programs and powerful advocacy drive change in communities from coast to coast to coast.
A century of experience has taught us that turning our bold dreams into reality takes a community. Active at every level of our organization, volunteers are key agents in moving our mission forward. From exciting local programs to national initiatives and leadership roles, our volunteers are working together to create powerful change for people with sight loss.
In honour of National Volunteer Week (which happened April 7-13), the CNIB Foundation would like to thank its volunteers for believing in a limitless future for people with sight loss. Thank you for changing what it is to be blind today.
