At Cincinnati Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired our mission is to empower people of Greater Cincinnati who are blind or visually impaired with opportunities to seek independence. We do this by surrounding our clients with the most caring people and helpful services to build a plan based on their needs.

CABVI is hosting an annual event for blind and visually impaired youth in our community. Cane Quest is competition event where students can show off their orientation and mobility skills. These include skills such as using their white canes to locate a curb, safely walk up and down stairs, and locate dropped objects on the floor without sight. The event not only gives the students to compete for prizes, but also show their parents and loved ones the skills they are learning from specialists in school. Families are able to meet and mingle with others experiencing the same struggles. Students are able to take pride in the skills they have learned and the steps they have taken toward independence despite their disability.

We loved having Kohl's Cares volunteers last year that helped prepare lunches, set up activities and work with kids.

Goal:
To create 500 sack lunches for homeless families

Why it's important:
We believe that everyone deserves to not feel forgotten. Those who depend on community support often find limited resources on weekends and towards the end of the month. This program is designed to fill in the gap. Additionally, we are targeting our distributions in our direct community to serve children and their families. As a way to tie in to our mission of helping those in need to not feel forgotten we are including handmade cards from our children's unit.

Want to create meaningful change in the lives of children?

61% of low-income kids live with no children's books in their homes. The average child growing up in a middle class family has been exposed to 1,700 hours of read-alouds while children growing up in low-income families have only been exposed to 25 hours.

Our Read Aloud Volunteers work to combat these statistics for Central Virginia's low-income children. Volunteers read aloud to kids in large and small groups and lead a fun activity, including giving books to the children to build their in-home libraries. Volunteers read for about one hour, twice a month (unless the volunteer would like to read aloud more often) in locations across Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield, & Hanover.
