CNIB Foundation expands virtual program offerings across Canada
In response to COVID-19, the CNIB Foundation has expanded its free virtual program offerings (e.g. career support, tech training, book clubs, youth groups) and resources for Canadians impacted by blindness. We’re committed to combating the negative ramifications that isolation can have on Canadians with sight loss and ensuring our community is supported during this unprecedented time. If you're able, please give today: cnib.ca/donate. Thank you for your support.
Your support is urgently needed
COVID-19 has intensified the isolation that many Canadians with sight loss regularly face, with potentially devastating consequences. We've developed 150 programs to keep people with sight loss connected during COVID-19. But the pandemic has had a huge impact on our ability to fund programs for those who need us.
