Why I Walk

Did you know that every minute, three Canadians turn to CNIB for support, advice and information?  

Celebrating 100 years in 2018, the CNIB Foundation is a non-profit organization driven to change what it is to be blind today.

• Have fun,play, connect with others and demonstrate that people with sight loss can do anything 
• Get the skills and resources to attainworkambitions, and break through barriers in the job market 
• Learnthe knowledge, social skills and independence to achieve their full potential in school and life, and 
• Advocateto change perceptions about blindness, eliminate barriers and transform challenges into opportunities 

By supporting these life-changing programs, you're making a significant difference in the lives of people right here in our community who are living with sight loss and empowering them to lead independent, active lives   and chase their dreams. 

For these reasons, I’m participating in Night Steps to raise funds for CNIB and change what it is to be blind today. Please donate to my page and help CNIB and Canadians in our community see beyond sight loss. 

Hayley and Bobby are both affected by Stargardt's disease.  They are losing their central vision.  At this time, this mostly affects their school work.  They require some modifications at school to help ensure that they are able to see the board and complete assignments.  The CNIB helps as much as they can, and the more you donate, the more they can help!!
