CNIB
Try something new with the CNIB Foundation!
Whether it's career support, tech training, youth groups, cooking classes or book clubs – our virtual programs are guaranteed to keep you entertained and engaged. Programs are free and available to Canadians who are blind or partially sighted as well as their families, friends and caregivers. Visit our new COVID-19 resources page to learn more about our innovative programs and powerful advocacy. Please note: CNIB offices are open to the public by appointment only. The Canadian COVID Alert app is now available in six provinces. Please download it to your phone today.
Border closures and travel restrictions are leaving many Canadians without the partners they need to safely navigate their world.
Support the urgent expansion today, by adding your donation to fund 150 CNIB Guide Dogs.
